Hobie Tiger Tramp

   It's along shot, but has anyone got an old school Tiger tramp kicking about that they would like to sell? It's the one that slots into the hulls.
We had a bit of a crisis at Bala Cat Open this weekend, I fell through the tramp. More upsetting was that we missed racing today when it was blowing properly...grr
An alternative would be if we can modify the boat to take a new style tramp, has anyone done this??
Cheers

	I think it's beyond repair this will be the second time I've gone through it.

	You could also give John Pierce a try, he only lives just down the road from you = your side of Whitland. His contact details can be found at stealthmarine.co.uk Without a boat for Monday I guess you didn't drink much!!

	Intoxicating!! Mixing long & short distance racing with copious amounts of live music as there was a Jazz & Blues fest in and around the Club. On a sad note one of the local Pubs was closing on Monday night so I had to pay my last respects
