Folkboat Week Ditty 2017
T
oday the windward mark caused grief,
When
YSA
tacked, Tom clenched his teeth!
The flood pushed all against the mark,
Which wasn't such an easy lark.
Two boats today ignored the rest,
To beat each other's their contest.
Match racing, they dropped down the fleet
For
Crackerjack's
the one to beat.
Stralende
did it - boys well done,
You've got the trophy, got the gun!
We love the Week here, think it's great,
And all of us appreciate,
The staff and all the great ROs,
Ensuring that the week just flows.
The Foxes get a special cheer,
For slaving hard for us all year.
But Lym Yacht Haven, we love you,
It's heartfelt thanks for all you do.
So raise a glass and drink a toast,
Our Sponsors and The Club, our host.
