Took a hard right lean comin' off t' rail (downwind). Avast, me proud beauty! Nice sparky motor burn. Well, blow me down! Arcin' over through t' coast, good drogue deployment at apogee, good main at 500 feet. Well, blow me down! Landed on t' sod in an adjacent field, long walk, no damage. Avast! Everythin' seems intact, ya bilge rat, can't explain t' off center boost.
