I cant believe that the cherub fleet of all places would not let you try it for a race or two, just for a laugh.  I for one would pay to see three people try and gybe a 12 foot boat!!

18 stone isn't even that light. I believe the average is about 20. Well, me and Joe weigh 20.

Have a look at www.skiff.org.au - in the historical pics they have crews of 5 in 12 foot skiffs...

Ah well, you two can be pros at sailing it and I can be a pro at shouting instructions from the shore in the most irritating way I can!  

Cor, with all three on it, I| think it'll prob sink if you two are 18 together!! Add it all up and that'd be a hefty 26 !!!! Is that way too hefty to sail??!
