After a year in which our sailing was compromised early on by Tom’s cycling injuries and later by Natalie’s, we are hoping for an injury-free year in 2022.
We are planning another year focussed on double handed racing, in the JOG inshore series (where we hope to lock horns with other J105s both fully crewed and short-handed), Royal Southampton‘s double handed series, and at least some the of races in the UK Double Handed Offshore Series . Tom will be filling in the gaps in Mostly Harmless’s programme by continuing to learn to sail his Waszp at Datchet Water Sailing Club and Natalie has been recruited as navigator for the Danish crew for the Womens’s Open Keelboat Championship in the Solent in July.
