Kicked a rock at PW and cut my foot badly. Duct taped it up and sailed for and hour and a half but wasnt able to get the distance in I had hoped for. Needed stitches so off the water for ten days. Bugger!

And put in a 34.5 with almost 100 km also

That is tough, I would have had an air ambulance there, and made sure It was in all the Newspapers and the nightly news

I would be really careful at Woodies with a blood trail, 4.5metre White Pointer is hanging around Rottnest, Point Walter is not far.

I stood on a broken glass a couple of weeks ago at Point Walter put a 1.5 cm hole in the soft part of my heel. Kept sailing a little worried about the blood trail but plenty of other bait sailing with me, I think Slowie was safe.
Had a Dr mate look at it and AFTER putting the pain killer into the bottom of my foot.
I recommend this to anyone who hates pain It is really hard to get a needle through the tough skin [}:)][}:)][}:)]
Promptly started digging all the bits of shell and other muck out AND
was told too much crap in there will wait and do it all again in a couple of days
Needless to say 2 days later another set of needles (The Hydrogen Peroxide was still frothing) more cleaning and nup still won't stitch it.
Taped it up and has heeled and went sailing yesterday > 10 days after the accident.

Does that count?
Go Wozzies

Well done Loa Shi, grit and determination and possible a bit of desperation after 2 weeks of doldrums
