just got back from the nats!!  swanage is a very nice place and there are some well fit girls down there that sail!!   very light first day and didnt do to well but today there was a f5 and very fast with the spinni up but had to retire after one race after hitting a lobster pot and snapping the down hall sytem on the rudder so it kept comeing up!!   but over all we got 8th and tim your auntie and uncle got second!!

in light winds the centre board will bet the keel by about 10 mins round the race course but in heavy winds there doesnt seem to be much difference in perforemance the only thing is the keel wont capsize in anything under a f6!!
