That reminds me of what I saw at last years Medway Dinghy Regatta in the car park:

It has a whole detatchable lorry to go with it.

Maybe that would be a good way of getting a boat round to open meetings?

Sorry Nibbler, you are of course right.

Double decker Ent it is!

I like the paint job on the bottom one, perhaps we'll see it adorning a Merlin at next years dinghy show?
