Captain Calamity

Post by Derek James »

Folks ,
its hard to believe but Captain Calamity sails a Dart :roll: Someone needs to give him some sailing advice , like give it up before you give the rest of us a bad name :roll:

Try this link http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/others ... -time.html

Just checked on you tube and I think its a Dart 18 :!:

:lol: saw it in the daily mirror last week and spent sometime looking at the boat since the number is very large for a 15 at 4090, thats more an 18's number.

Yes he really does seem to need to belong to a club with a patrol boat to rescue him when he gets in strife rather than calling out the lifeboat.

If you look closely at one point, the camera zooms in on the sail and you can clearly see the 18 in the dart insignia. Still he is giving cat sailors a bad name- next thing will be legislation!

He seems to be making a habit of destroying Dart 18's have a look at this one.
