Hi, Who is off to the boat show this year? and what are you looking for? Will Y+Y be there? Do any forum members meet up there or is that a bad idea? |

We'll be doing the 'Battle of the Classes' which apparently is going to be a dinghy race on Victoria Dock on the second weekend. Now I've sailed on Victoria Dock, It is very long & thin and surrounded by skyscrapers, so the wind is a tad shifty. Do come & say hello, we'll be in a blue & red striped boat with a heart on the sail! |

I will be there Saturday 8th, It would be a nice idea, though the show runs for a week and people have different days that they are able to attend. Be good if the Y+Y stand had a 'forum' visitors book on their stand, at least we could see who has been or see who is around. What about a meeting up time on each day for 'forum'ites' say 11am or 3pm each day at the Y+Y stand, though I guess the guys at YY would be very busy and not want their pitch being used as 'meeting corner' we could wear a pink carnation!!!! though as said, it would be nice to put faces to some crazy names. |

Might not be as easy as you think....good handicap on a well sailed Oppy and if they have the breeze to start and it dies later on then it could be close. There's not much space in those docks |

well knowing the guys sailing the torndo they wont do to badly, but on handicap doesnt the oppy have to start 2 hours and somthing before the tornado as its a persuit race or will they half the times as its a winter race?? imagine the monster windshadows in the dock, i will talk to them and find out if they are going to fly the kite lol wouldnt that be fun!!!! |

I think we should demand a Y&Y forum users lounge, like the RYA one. What should it have in it though? (Apart from Playmobil boats and a bath!!!!) |
