505 Success!
P&B’s 505 results continue to roll on in!
1st, 2nd and 3rd UK Nationals 2015
Howie Hamlin from the USA joined team P&B at the UK Nationals testing out his new sails before the Europeans next week. “These sails are awesome” was Howie’s take on their performance after a full on race with current World and now UK National Champion Mike Holt, Howie had the downwind speed to push Holty all the way.
As we publish today Musto P&B Race Team’s Steve Graham (sail maker and designer) is in third place after three races at the Enterprise Nationals. Go Stevo!
Call the sail loft on 01604 592808 for the latest info regarding sails for your class.
Summer Long John Sale!
P&B are celebrating the changeable summer weather with 20% off some of our favourite long johns.
20% off Gill Long Johns and 20% off Crewsaver phase 2 Long johns.
KIT of the WEEK!
Each week one of the P&B team will be looking into their kit bag and giving us an item that they simply wouldn't sail without!
This week Lawrence Creaser's kit of the week is the P&B National GP14 Padded Toe Straps as they give him sufficient grip when hiking out and are made from high quality webbing and padding. They are excellent in the windy conditions and are made to last!.
On Thursday with Lawrence on the helm & James crewing, Lawrence was hiking out up the beat, James looked round after hearing a loud splash to see Lawrence toppling over board head first, feet in the air.
it would appear he hadn't tied the toe straps in correctly, luckily this happened just before the race, and they went on to come second. Lawrence has got him self the RYA KNOT, splices & rope work handbook as he clearly needs to re-learn how to tie a bowline!
