Yeh .... I dont think the dog comes with the boat ....

Jeffers, I hope it'll be good fun. We know we arn't gonna be competetive on the circuit, but with a bit of time in the boat, we hopefully wont be too bad!

We will also hopefully be bringing it to Fed Week, along with an RS200 ( Go blasting in the Fireball after / before racing )

And in light winds - Just sail it singlehanded with the kite!

Sounds good Villain, I would imagine you would wipe the floor in the classic fleet though. Plus when you get the hang of it you can always go Winder baiting, Jon and I used to do that in 11054, the looks on their faces when they are beaten by a very old boat is a picture.

Ooooh .... Winder baiting ...  Is that like Laser baiting? ( Staying just far enough ahead that you win on handicap )

Pity it doesnt work as well when they are lapping you ....

Ha!

You will be on your side in the spice most of the time!

Anyone here want to crew a fireball next winter, and show Ratty that wooden symetric boat are fast ( Faster than his RS300 as well!!! )

epoxy on your fingers is painful, it dries up then it wont come off for ages and when you can pull it off it pulls the hairs out of the backs of your fingers.

ive been building a paper and epoxy model boat, thats how i know.
600 732, will call it Sticks and Stones when i get round to it.
Also International 14, 1318

I had to drop the kite approaching the wall at draycote single handed when the crew went for an unplanned man overboard! It was close to the wall put it that way  Got him back though before the saftey boats noticed, no harness nuffink
