May be sailing Ratfaces 14 ... If we can find a shalow enough foil for it!

If not, I'm gonna go for a yacht in the Contender. I want to see if my " Plastering of the front of the centerboard case with apoxy " bodge job has worked.

If not ... Looks like the decks will be coming off over the summer!!!

All this will be after preparing the Vareo for Weston next weekend!! ( Awaiting a yes/no from the prospective crew re that still ... so I'll have to speed-derig a 200 on Thursday if Ratfaces isnt back! )

Budget splosh.

£250 for the contender, and I still get to wuss out with a cup of tea on the windy days as I have the Vareo!!

I am considering a Solution in a year or so .... Just need to get some test sails!

Unless you want to let me have a play on your 600 next time im at alton?

Solution, bit of a handful upwind Villan. There are 3 at Hunts, I am sure one of them could be persauded to let you have a go!

Offwind they are lovely though :-) made me grin!

Still havent had any of them beat me in the 8.1 yet though :-D

If you speak nicely to the people on the lawn, someone might give you a go on a B14. Can't promise anything, clearly, what with not being an owner, but the fleet is a friendly bunch. Hell, I've got a feeling there might even be one looking for a crew for Sunday, if you've a decent set of hike shorts.

Wow a solution! lovely looking boats, mini phantoms for skinneys in my eyes  There is a chap at alton who has one stored at alton, and buying another one to store a clacton so he can choose where he sails.

Yep, when your at alton your more than welcome to take the 6 out!

My hikers are at home . Hiking is far too tiring... . Thanks for the tip though will try and get a go.

Forecast now 5 mph - the sort of wind the 4000 does not excel in.
