Who was out this weekend?.....

   I would not be impressed by a safety boat tying a line to a bow ring - it should be round the mast wherever possible.

	I was at the Glyn Charles crewing a 200 yesturday. Absolutely great event!! About 10 seconds up the first beat me and my helm look at each other and say "ooowwwww.....this hurts!!" Neither of us have hiked for a long time! Kept chopping in and out of being the lead 200 so we had a good battle all the way round but towards the end we started to get a bit sloppy and let a group of boats through. The sun was out and the breeze was on so I make that a good day!! Doug H

	Sounds fun I on the other hand had a great (but painful) afternoon going pretty much as fast as I ever have in a GP14, screaming downwind with the kite up, the only sound being the hissing of the spray... doesn't happen very often! We'd have won all 3 races too if we hadn't been a bit short of the 25+ stone needed to keep the boat flat upwind in those conditions... great sailing

	oi! we gybed perfectly fine... started a drop and the rudder wouldn't let me bear away as a wave made us go sideways!! jib has a hole in it, and the rig didnt fall down but the bow ring came off as the rib tried to right us

	Um, so who's fault is it the b14 capsized, The Jib is knackered? and the rig fell down? Can't always be the crew's! (oh and for those that don't know Dave, he isn't fat)
