Yeah, well it doesn't look tooooo hard!!  Why don't we just wait for the boat and then jump around and get excited when we've actually got it!!!  

Hey, waverider, have you sorted out who's getting the boat back e.t.c??!

Nope Oi you lot leaving it all 2 me  lol !!

Nope i cant contact blokey yet, but ive txted him and left a message on his work phone.

And as for getting it back im hoping to bugger that he will deliver it otherwise, unless you have a towbar ellie, we are screwed!

That boat looks good but Jim C is a good boat builder, yeah we can probably manage putting a bowsprit on etc buut not more than that yet

Ed can you delete some pm's please cos i was trying to say something about a kite.

Chris, the answer is yes, I believe there is a handicap competition at the nats, which runs alongside the main competition. However, old boats can easily be made competitive with a bit of care and attention and updating.

I'm off to the nationals now!

Good for you strawberry!!! Go out there, and beat em all! You know you can!

Alright frank, keep your hair on!  Just to say though, that if you want to give me a list of things you think we should buy for it, and costs then I could write up a budget plan, so we don't get ideas way beyond our expectations!!! (sorry to be a pain!!!)

I can ask - I asked earlier, but I thought it was called a crowbar instead, my dad looked slightly suspicious!!!

i may have some windsurf masts, ill need to see what ive got as some are reserve moth masts, also i would have thought the carbon landing net handle would have been better, lighter and less likely to flex or bend.

While playing around seeing what works, an extension can be made for less than a fiver using 22 mm white plumbing pipe and a piece of 18mm dowl stuffed inside it. bends more than carbon...but serves while experimenting!
