I remember an 18' taking part in the racing a few years ago. I think the helm was fairly new to the beasties, capzised and tied up the two rescue boats for the majority of the race, think they banned them at that point. Great shame as there's few boats more impressive on the water - guaranteed to clear all boats out of the way!

Grafham have only let the 18 come to the ovington memorial in the last few years. I can see their piont, takes up loads of room, is a pig if you need to rescue someone, and scares the pants off slower boats, who you generally can't see from the helm. Having said that, only boat i have not had a collision in, except the solution, but only had that out once. Not had it on the water the last year, as one of the guys has gone to oz, and work getting too busy to do it justice. They take a whole lot of training to be safe on a race course. Andy |

Giles,
Come and find me, I think I might be 1 of 2 Blazes going, sail 655 if it is light enough to hoist ashore. I will try nd find you in your solution, just negotiating with the club on payment as I have missed the snail mail..... Paul |

Morning They will also take payment over the phone, but will need to see a copy of your entry form. Paul, will try to come along on the day but decision will be spur of the moment, if I come and find you in the morning, would that be ok? Giles |
