What you should be thinking about, is not rigging it, it's how your going to
get back into it once you've fallen out.

Seriously it doesn't take that long, just opening the bags and threading the
kite as I recall, it just seems so long ago now..

They run through it with you, when you collect it, it's fairly simple, even I
managed to work it out and I'm an absolute muppet when it comes to
threading stuff about boats.

If anyone is able to take some holiday just before the
nationals don't forget that Parkstone YC has got it's
regatta week. You can enter for the week or by the day but
entries need to be in before the week starts and there is a
£10 increase after tomorrow for late entries. Link here

Are you allowed to leave the kite ashore?

Check the all-class RS rules....

what does the NoR say about sail choice?

Is this the first one-class event?

Then what if there's a variable option, choose the sail to suit the
race?

That'd set the heavies whining.

Is there a choice?

I assumed it would be a lightweight/heavy thing.

Lights have to use the small sail heavies use the big one.

If not then I'll check the forecast if it's more light wind than strong then
y'all are screwed. If it's windy then I'm screwed anyway,I can't make
either of those sails go in strong wind.

But I guess the former solution is fairest

This is going to seem a strange question, but has anyone got a spare mast?
