F.I.S.L.Y. President’s word<br />
It’s an honour to present you the <strong>13</strong>th edition<br />
of Fisly News. Since the creation of Fislynews<br />
in 1990, communication and information<br />
about landsailing has developed very fast.<br />
Mainly since the start up of more than 100<br />
websites, you can find the information you<br />
want. Our own Fisly-website made it possible<br />
to make contact with many other sites. But<br />
one issue is very important: update of the<br />
information on the websites.<br />
We specially thank Geert Debeerst, the Fisly<br />
webmaster, for the work he has done and is<br />
still doing.<br />
But today the main concern has to be<br />
SECURITY in the practice of our sport. We<br />
have to focus on the security of the<br />
landsailors and other users of beaches and<br />
lakes.<br />
We can improve security in different ways.<br />
One is to respect the racing rules and apply<br />
them in a spirit of sportsmanship. Security<br />
has to prevail in the competition: we have to<br />
adapt a defensive sailing attitude together<br />
with a rigorous respect of the priority rules.<br />
(keep sufficient distance between yachts!)<br />
Another issue is to have more attention for an<br />
ergonomic position of the pilot in the yacht<br />
and sufficient structural components in yacht<br />
construction to protect the sailor in an<br />
accident.<br />
Security is high on the agenda of FISLY.<br />
FISLY has installed a security committee to<br />
formulate recommendations and proposals to<br />
improve security.<br />
Thanks to partnerships to make EC’s and<br />
WD’s possible, we can raise the necessary<br />
resources, manage and motivate volunteers.<br />
In the year 2000, FISLY made for the first<br />
time a long-term commitment with<br />
JUNGHANS as a main sponsor for EC’s and<br />
WC’s till 2004. Their support has contributed<br />
a lot to the realisation of our top events and<br />
also to the development of our website. By<br />
this way we thank the management of<br />
JUNGHANS for the trust and involvement in<br />
landyachting.<br />
Today we are at the eve of the 8 th World<br />
Championship landyachting and the 41 st<br />
European Championship in Germany. By the<br />
time this newsletter is in your hands, the class<br />
8 kitebuggy will have had already their<br />
championships on the same beautiful beach<br />
of Sankt Peter Ording.<br />
We want to thank the organisers for their<br />
efforts and their hospitality, but also the<br />
regional government and the participating<br />
towns for their financial and logistic support.<br />
Finally we thank the commercial sponsors for<br />
their efforts, because without them such an<br />
event can’t be organised.<br />
Anyhow most important are the landsailors.<br />
We hope you enjoy a sportive championship<br />
and wish that the best of you will win in the<br />
spirit of the Olympic idea.<br />
Fair winds !<br />

HOLLAND<br />
Land Yachting in The Netherlands<br />
The French have Le Bercq (and many other<br />
places), the Belgians have De Panne, the Germans<br />
St Peter Ordning, and poor us, Dutchmen<br />
what do we have Of course, the Island<br />
of Terschelling with its most beautifull beaches.<br />
Actually all the northern islands, also Ameland<br />
and Schiermonnikoog have similar beaches<br />
very suitable for landyachting. Hundreds of meters<br />
wide and tenths of kilometers in length. But<br />
only Terschelling is easily accessible and, very<br />
important, the island is governed by a body of<br />
‘Burgemeester and Wethouders’ that looks with<br />
a favourable eye to the sport of landyachting,<br />
’strandzeilen’ as we call it.<br />
St Peter Ordning is one of the traditional places<br />
we love all to go sailing. In September, a beautifull<br />
time of the year. The summer is still there,<br />
and the tourists are gone. I’m sure it will be<br />
great.:<br />
Next year, 2005 it is again our (de Nederlandse<br />
Strandzeilfederatie) turn to organize the European<br />
Championships. And that will be, of<br />
course on Terschelling. In 2000 we hosted the<br />
EC (and WC), successfully (we think). To be<br />
honest the organization of an international<br />
event is quite an effort for us with only a small<br />
number of active pilots. But we will be happy to<br />
try again. We are really looking forward to welcome<br />
you all then. Alas in october: it will be<br />
colder and more windy.<br />
What is news in the Lowlands at the Sea Of<br />
interest to our neighbours is the development<br />
of ‘strandzeilen’ in the South-west, in the province<br />
of Zeeland, the delta area of the confluent<br />
Rhine and Meuse rivers. Almost all major sea<br />
arms in this delta have been closed off from the<br />
sea by huge dykes about thirty years ago after<br />
a major flooding of all the islands and land area<br />
in the delta during a major north-western storm<br />
in 1953. Since then there is a slow process of<br />
beach formation against some of these dykes,<br />
particularly at the intersection of dykes and the<br />
old land. The time has come to exploit these<br />
beaches for sailing.<br />
neighbouring countries participated. Still, the<br />
Zeeland beaches are far away from being competetive<br />
to the superb beaches of the northern<br />
islands.<br />
Most of you will be aware of the increased<br />
number of serious accidents, the last couple of<br />
years. England a few years ago, Terschelling in<br />
2002, St Peter Ordning earlier this year, and<br />
now a serious accident during the Dutch Open<br />
2004. Reiner Seibel from Germany capsized in<br />
his Class 3 vehicle. His car turned over, the<br />
roll-bar broke down and Reiner got stuck in between<br />
car and sand. He broke a low number<br />
vertebra and will be partly paralysed for the<br />
rest of his life. We all deeply sympathise with<br />
Reiner, his wife and family and wish him all the<br />
strength he will need to adjust his life.<br />
The question of safety is raised, again. Should<br />
the condition of the cars be checked before the<br />
regatta’s Is there anyway more we can do to<br />
further minimize the risks <br />
The conditions in Ouddorp during that day<br />
were far from ideal, but not impossible or dangerous.<br />
A South-easterly wind of about 5 Bft<br />
(17-21 knots) . The beach, however was in a<br />
poor state due to weeks of easterly, off-land<br />
winds. The pilots had to cross a soft-sand bar.<br />
Should not offer any problem to the experienced.<br />
Just bear of in time and let the sheet<br />
go. And Reiner is an experienced land sailor. I<br />
hope he does remember and is willing to explain<br />
what exactly caused the accident.<br />

We organized the Open Dutch Championship<br />
this year in Ouddorp, as a try out. The delta<br />
area as a location for international regatta’s<br />
has the advantage that it is much closer to the<br />
Belgian and French centers than Terschelling.<br />
And, indeed, more pilots than ever from<br />

USA<br />
NATIONALS 2004<br />
The 28 th Annual Nationals regatta turned out to<br />
be a rousing success. We had a nice sailing<br />
wind come up late on Saturday afternoon.<br />
Everyone got a chance to sail and enjoy the<br />
evening around the campfire. Here we had an<br />
acoustic instrument night and a wonderful dinner<br />
of steak and chicken. Approximately 70<br />
dinners were cooked to perfection by our own<br />
Steve Brown. Dorita and all the other ladies<br />
provided a wonderful repast of corn, fresh fruit,<br />
bread and potatoes.<br />
of great weather and sailing conditions on<br />
Thursday and Friday. Many of the sailors<br />
stayed over on Tuesday to help pack up and<br />
miss some of the holiday traffic.<br />
Check out the results and congratulate the<br />
new National Champions for 2004. We look<br />
forward to seeing you all next year. Keep in<br />
touch as we are working on exploring a new<br />
venue.<br />
Nord Embroden<br />
The wind came up Sunday afternoon with a<br />
vengeance. Racing started with fairly light<br />
winds but they quickly built to 26 mph. It was<br />
quite a day of sailing particularly for our new<br />
Ladies fleet and Junior fleet. The winds stayed<br />
steady well into the evening.<br />
Racing continued until dark when the band<br />
took over. The Educators played a mix of oldies<br />
and traditional songs. During intermission<br />
the audience stepped on stage and beat out a<br />
couple of tunes with young Eddie on the<br />
drums. The band played well into early morning<br />
with a huge campfire and moon providing a<br />
surreal atmosphere.<br />
Monday started with a pancake breakfast in<br />
the big tent. Folks moved through the breakfast<br />
line as they woke up conveniently spreading<br />
out the service for a couple of hours.<br />
Winds began to perk up around lunch time and<br />
some classes got underway. The twins chose<br />
a long course which provided some fluky and<br />
challenging sailing. The Juniors made it<br />
around the short course fairly easily. Racing<br />
stopped at 2:00 and awards followed in the big<br />
tent.<br />
The weekend included a broomball championship<br />
event for the kids, crazy hat contest,<br />
model glider fly-in and balloon animal contest.<br />
Several sailors ventured out to enjoy some<br />
moonlight sailing along the lakeshore. The<br />
temperatures were perfect all weekend and<br />
stayed nice even into the evening. Those that<br />
came early enjoyed a couple of additional days<br />

DENMARK<br />
NEWS FROM DENMARK<br />
Rømø Strandsejler Club (RSC) has 100<br />
members and still more are joining us. The<br />
nationalities of the members are several e.g.<br />
from Denmark, Germany and Sweden. At the<br />
RSC we have different classes like class III,<br />
class 5, Standard class and class DN. The DN<br />
class is recognised by an ice yacht<br />
reconstructed to a land yacht. Furthermore we<br />
have Mantas and Blo-Karts running.<br />
With great success we have established a land<br />
yacht school. It is located on the beach from<br />
May to October. The students receive a<br />
professional teaching in land sailing and<br />
theory. Afterwards an examination at the RSC<br />
will give them license to join regattas.<br />
On the south end of Rømø, the RSC has 16<br />
km² excellent beach at its disposition. A very<br />
flat and fine beach and superb wind conditions<br />
are some of the trademarks for the RSC’s<br />
area.<br />
At the first weekend in August we have had a<br />
major event - our yearly International Regatta.<br />
Landsailers from Denmark, Sweden, Germany,<br />
Netherlands and Switzerland were joining. With<br />
perfect weather conditions, sunshine and not a<br />
cloud on the sky, about 40 yachts in different<br />
classes attended. The beach and wind<br />
conditions were excellent, about 6-7 m/s., and<br />
high speeds were reached. In the evening a<br />
barbecue at the local restaurant gave the<br />
regatta a more familiar dimension. The pilots<br />
were excited about our International Regatta<br />
and promised to tell about it at home to friends<br />
and family. It is worth visiting our International<br />
Regatta.<br />
At our homepage www.strandsejler.dk you can<br />
find more information about RSC and results<br />
from our regattas.<br />

Rally Wissant Calais 2004<br />
(What FISLY also does)<br />
The most beautiful beach on the European<br />
continent to practice our sport is certainly the<br />
one from Wissant to Calais. You can sail at the<br />
foot of the Cap Blanc Nez. This is the closest<br />
cliff to England. On a clear day one can easily<br />
see the White Cliffs of Dover.<br />
Since the 1970ies yearly in the summer there<br />
has been a race from Wissant to Calais or from<br />
Calais to Wissant. In the first years it was the<br />
former president Mister Fremaux who organized<br />
it. Afterwards all the pilots were invited at<br />
his home where his wife had prepared a meal.<br />
That is all many years ago but that was real<br />
good life.<br />
This race has been organized until about 1994.<br />
Over the years it has been very successful and<br />
many pilots came to make it. It was called a<br />
race but in reality it was also for many a ‘guided<br />
tour’ in between the rocks up to the foot of de<br />
Cap Blanc Nez.<br />
For about 10 years nothing had happened<br />
there any more. The club had oriented itself to<br />
initiations with small yachts for beginners.<br />
Meanwhile pilots in many clubs dreamt of sailing<br />
the Rally Wissant-Calais again.<br />
The club instructor and our sailing master<br />
Stephane Cardon explained us how to get step<br />
by step to the Cape. He insisted that everyone<br />
followed his instructions. As we came closer we<br />
were impressed by the monumental cliff. The<br />
beach was superbly flat and the wind was<br />
downwind slightly from the sea. The seagulls<br />
circled above our heads. The waves were<br />
bright and sparkling in the sun.<br />
In the half hour one can pass the cliff we sailed<br />
in the direction of Calais to Sangatte and back.<br />
From then on we went back in the direction of<br />
Wissant. It was like sailing out of a dream….<br />
In the evening we were invited in the primary<br />
school by the president of the Club Miss Dorothee<br />
Fetel and her team of youth leaders for a<br />
barbecue they had prepared for us. It was the<br />
most beautiful sailing day of the year !<br />
The day after we were only four that has<br />
stayed in Wissant. We sailed again up to the<br />
Cape.<br />
It is unforgettable… .<br />

Finally the topic was mentioned in the FISLY<br />
Council meeting in January in Hamburg in presence<br />
of the French president. What did we<br />
have to do to organize this event again The<br />
answer was simple: You ask for the necessary<br />
permissions and you organize it !<br />
So a collabaration started between the Yacht<br />
Club Sankt Peter-Ording, the Royal Sand Yacht<br />
Club of De Panne and the Bleriot Club from Le<br />
Touquet. The local club agreed also to welcome<br />
us and to participate in the organisation.<br />
On the 10 th of july at 11 AM we were there with<br />
about 20 yachts ready to take of for a guided<br />
tour. A race could not be held because we didn’t<br />
get all the necessary permissions from the<br />
authorities. Among us was Garreth Rowland<br />
from the UK and Hans Werner Eickstaedt from<br />
Germany, many Belgians and some French<br />
pilots. The wind was coming up smoothly.<br />

“The Black Rock”<br />
An amazing place to be… to sail… and to<br />
meet the sailors of SASSASS.<br />
Coming from Oregon it was late in the afternoon<br />
when my wife Anne and me left the main<br />
road for a gravel road without signs. Ten miles<br />
later we were in a complete desolate place<br />
without any communication possible. But with<br />
enough water on board and a solid four wheeldriven<br />
car we chose to go for the adventure.<br />
Another 75 miles later, after passing 2 canyons<br />
and an aborted ranch, we reached the town<br />
“Gerlach” which is on the border of the Black<br />
Rock Desert. We found immediately “Bruno’s”,<br />
the only bar-restaurant-casino and motel in a<br />
perimeter of 100 miles.<br />
There we met the first landsailors of SASSASS<br />
and a sailor from Wisconsin who did a four<br />
days trip to join the event.<br />
The next day we drove to our meeting point at<br />
“Planet X” where Denis Bassano senior took<br />
care of us and showed us the way to the<br />
“camp” on Black Rock. Don’t try to go alone<br />
the first time because you really have the risk to<br />
get lost and never find the camp which is hidden<br />
some 22 miles deep in the dry lake desert.<br />
This first contact with Black Rock was very impressive,<br />
due to its immensity: you can’t see<br />
the end of it except for the surrounding mountains<br />
that never came nearby. This impression<br />
was confirmed when we made a trip above the<br />
desert with an airplane of one of the sailorfriends.<br />
The camp was organised in a circle, which<br />
made it look like a small village with in the middle<br />
a marquee, a tapa-bar and a bowling facility.<br />
The welcome in this “landsailors town”<br />
made us immediately feel at home.<br />
In the next hours, the camp was always growing<br />
and finally we ended up with more than 100<br />
people. Landyachts where set up, the camps<br />
installed and the first trainings started<br />
immediately. I had the opportunity to sail one<br />
of Denis’ yachts and I can only say it was for<br />
me a wonderful and impressive experience.<br />
Even with a light wind it goes very fast, it’s very<br />
stable and listens to each corrective manoeuvre.<br />
By sunset we all were invited to the opening<br />
of the ladies “artwork exhibition” in different<br />
camps and we discovered some hidden artist<br />
talent. Amazing!<br />
The next day the wind was down but we had a<br />
wonderful SASSASS tapa-bar at noon and by<br />
sunset the drinks were produced by the big<br />
SASSASS-mixer. We went late back to the<br />
motel and the next 2 nights we were invited as<br />
a guest in Walters trailed home. The following<br />
day we still had no wind but we enjoyed the<br />
talks and socialized in the different camps. On<br />
Friday: no wind again, but the night was good:<br />
a big raffle night and pot-luck with a fine atmosphere<br />
in the landsailors family.<br />
On Saturday finally, the wind was blowing. We<br />
were able to sailing 11 races in the different<br />
classes. In the evening, everybody was working<br />
together to clean up all installation facilities<br />
and went home.<br />
During our stay we also visited the hot-springs,<br />
we discovered the “holy gale”, the absolute silence<br />
of the desert, the relativity of human being<br />
in such a desolate place where you can’t<br />
survive longer than 12 hours without water. It<br />
is the desert that the pioneers had to trespass<br />
to go to Oregon and California.<br />
We lived in the SASSASS-family and we made<br />
new friends. That was to us one of the most<br />
important things to experience. I therefore<br />
want to thank everyone and especially Denis<br />
Bassano junior and Mary for their hospitality<br />
and the use of the wonderful yacht. Also many<br />
thanks to Denis senior and Rainy, Walther and<br />
his wife and all other SASSASS members for<br />
their warm welcome in the desert.<br />
Our final word to all landsailors: the “Black<br />
Rock” is a place to visit at least once in your<br />
lifetime.<br />
Eric and Anne.<br />
P.S. The “Black Rock” desert is the biggest flat<br />
surface in the northern hemisphere of the earth.<br />
The Black Rock splits up in two parts: one has<br />
a length of 40 miles and the other 75 miles.<br />

One beach I have never sailed on is Wissant<br />
but I have heard the long tales told from the<br />
bottom of a beer glass. So, with the Wissant to<br />
Calais Rally revived after many years I thought<br />
it would be nice to sail it and find out if all the<br />
stories were true.<br />
When mentioning my plans to others I was advised<br />
to take plenty of spares and told not to<br />
break too much! For some reason the beach is<br />
known for holes, rocks and generally a yachtbreaking<br />
beach.<br />
The week before the Rally northern Europe<br />
was lashed by summer storms, 30 to 40 mph<br />
winds with heavy rain battered the trees in full<br />
leaf. Mablethorpe had some of the highest<br />
summer tides, driven on by the wind. Thankfully<br />
the depression moved off to the north east<br />
by Friday and a south-westerly wind was forecast<br />
for the weekend in France.<br />
Friday I loaded the trailer up and made my way<br />
from England to France. The road turning for<br />
Wissant can be easily missed as you belt south<br />
along the A16 motorway normally aiming for<br />
the larger towns of Boulogne or Berck. The turn<br />
for Wissant takes you into the National Park<br />
and to a bay between the two Capes of Blanc-<br />
Nez and Gris-Nez. Wissant is a fishing village<br />
that has managed to stay in a time warp. Largely<br />
untouched by modern development, the<br />
Wissant has flobart boats parked next to cars<br />
along the street.<br />
Once I safely navigated the village's circular<br />
one-way system I found the car park next the<br />
beach. I rigged up the old K800. The old yacht -<br />
s body is heavy and built like a tank, just would<br />
probably be needed for such a beach.<br />
The Hotel de la Plage - hotel website - was on<br />
the main road. My room had a view from the<br />
balcony overlooking Lake Carriere du Phare, a<br />
camping site, in the distance the Aval sand<br />
dune, and the beach with Cape Gris-Nez.<br />
A quick wash and brush up and it was back into<br />
the village to inspect the watering holes.<br />
There was an evening Farmers Market with all<br />
sorts on display. I bought snails in duck fat,<br />
snails and pork paté and some very strange<br />
dried pork sausage. The cheese stall needed<br />
breathing apparatus even to venture close to it.<br />
With the thought of a warm car and two days<br />
inside it before returning to England I could only<br />
imagine what cheese might be running<br />
about... and the odour!!! I looked from a distance<br />
then headed for the local hotel and some<br />
welcome food and wine. The food was excellent<br />
and the wine menu was all of five pages!<br />
With a full belly it was off to bed and see what<br />
Saturday produced.<br />
SATURDAY: The day started a little overcast<br />
with little wind. After an early breakfast I trotted<br />
to the beach and rigged the yacht. At 10am I<br />
pushed K800 onto the beach and waited for the<br />
briefing. By now the skies had cleared and the<br />
sun was out, and a light breeze from the south<br />
west tempted all onto the white sand. I knew<br />
better than to venture out only to be becalmed<br />
down the beach.<br />
Low tide was at 14.00 so it was waiting for the<br />
tide to go out and use a pair of binoculars to<br />
look at the narrow beach at the Cape. Already<br />
dressed up in the drysuit I placed various small<br />
spares in K800 along with some water just in<br />
case the wind dropped.<br />
Thankfully by the time we had the briefing and<br />
then started the race the wind had picked up to<br />
a healthy south westerly, just off the sea. That<br />
gave us a downwind run on a good beach, past<br />
the Dune of D'Amont on to the Petite Blanc<br />
Nez. A small cape with cliffs slowly rising up to<br />
53 metres (173ft). We were advised not to sail<br />
through puddles of water as at the bottom there<br />
might be rocks in them.<br />
Just before the rocks at Petite Nez we were<br />
stopped at a series of cones. There we could<br />
admire the view of the cliffs and view the beach<br />
further on. At that point we had another briefing<br />
being advised of a beach access at Cran d' Escalles,<br />
a dip in the cliffs with a path down on to<br />
the beach. We looked for a course round the<br />
rocks, sailed past the Cran d' Escalles where<br />
only a few people were on the beach. After that<br />
still sailing downwind you could weave your<br />
way round the rocks sailing at speed right up to<br />
the cliff, then peeling off at the last minute back<br />
down the gradient of the beach and run as long<br />
as possible downwind along the hard bank.<br />
12
UNITED KINGDOM<br />
We were stopped again at some more cones at<br />
the Cape Blanc Nez with cliffs of 158 metres<br />
(518ft) high, the World War I monument towered<br />
above us. Time to have a further briefing<br />
and the four wheeled back up bought some<br />
welcome "Red Bull" watered "up" with you<br />
know what! A welcome treat to wash away the<br />
salt and sand.<br />
You then had a choice of sailing further on to<br />
the last section of rocky beach where the<br />
beach was really narrowed by rock falls from<br />
the cliff falls and the rock outcrops on the<br />
beach made it really narrow. At this point the<br />
GPS told us that were on top of the Channel<br />
Tunnel.<br />
We were told that it was 30 minutes before Low<br />
Tide so we could sail around the area for a<br />
short time then return back to Wissant. I navigated<br />
the last section of rocky beach towards<br />
Calais; it was tricky with only a narrow strip of<br />
hard sand. Still sailing downwind it was flip flop<br />
tacking using the full camber of the mast and<br />
sail, which gave you short squirts of speed with<br />
just enough time on the turn to plan the next<br />
tack avoiding any rocks.<br />
As the beach opened out towards Sangatte,<br />
the cliffs dropped away to a small ridge of<br />
dunes. I could see one French yacht ahead of<br />
me. With an empty beach and a good wind I<br />
decided to follow. I noted 21 wooden post groins<br />
from the channel ferry, with a small lake at<br />
the end of each groin the downwind tacks had<br />
to be timed so that you could use the hard<br />
beach inside the line of the groins, then turn<br />
and shoot out before the puddle of water got<br />
you at the next groin. This gave you plenty of<br />
power and speed to run along the hard sand<br />
without going onto the wetter rippled beach.<br />
By now the wind had picked up some more and<br />
the sand was lifting on the beach making the<br />
softer sand difficult to see. Back amidst the<br />
groins of Sangatte you had to pass in and out<br />
of them to make good speed upwind, with the<br />
occasional trip out on to the wetter ripples needed<br />
to round the curve of the beach back to the<br />
yachts waiting at the Nez. No doubt the "Red<br />
Bull" was out again as only two yachts sailed to<br />
Calais.<br />
The two of us were again briefed that with the<br />
incoming tide it was important to be past the<br />
Petite Blanc Nez and on to the main beach of<br />
Wissant as the sea would cut back in sharply<br />
with the tide. Having completed my mission I<br />
cut and ran and sailed back to Wissant and a<br />
welcome warm English beer that was waiting in<br />
the car...<br />
With the prospect of a light wind Sunday and a<br />
low tide of 15.0 I decided to pack K800 up and<br />
head back to the hotel to wash off the salt and<br />
sand. The Saturday evening bash was at the<br />
primary school with a promised barbecue and<br />
all had a pleasant time.<br />
SUNDAY: Sunday morning was pleasant and I<br />
did some shopping on the way back to Calais<br />
and got the cross-Channel ferry home. For those<br />
with a GPS programme I recorded the sailing<br />
from Wissant to Calais as well as the course<br />
of the ferry in relation to the beach. Hope<br />
you enjoyed the read.<br />
Regards<br />
Gareth Rowland K800<br />
Once past Sangatte and the Dunes of Fort Mahon,<br />
there was a good width of beach and you<br />
could speed up the yacht and beat the cross<br />
channel ferry sailing parallel to the beach, some<br />
1000 metres out to sea. With the industrial<br />
stacks of Calais coming into view, the southern<br />
part of Bleriot Beach narrowed and the bait diggers<br />
had been at work. With no real way<br />
through and with the thought of an incoming<br />
tide it was time to turn round and sail back upwind<br />
to the rest of the yachts back at the Cape.<br />
