A full Devoti day at Oxford would certainly be a great idea, and would raise awareness of some boats that at most clubs have never been heard of. I mention D1, Punk or Icon at Whitefriars, I might as well be talking martian. RS100 they have heard of. Mind, with Demo Dave growing up there, it isn't that surprising!

Chance to sail a D1 and D0, count me in, I might even trail my D2 (sorry Icon) down if Suntouched sponsored the fuel!

Simple, I want laser like sailing experience but with a better, more controllable rig.

that makes a lot of sense - one I actually share with you.  Having not sailed the production D-Zero, I won't write it off as not delivering on that objective just yet.  Let's get a demo boat up to the midlands and go for some beers and a curry afterwards?  

Now that sounds a great idea!  Smile And let's get the rs boat up as well.

Not sure either party would be up for that Blue One,  as i said i would happily arrange for a bit of a Devoti Day at a Midlands based club, subject to Rodney's and Dan's approval.

Was not serious with that one Russ. Did not mean at the same time or even place. Smile

Why not a full Devoti test day with the Finn and D-one as well? Enjoy a full range of quality boats.

do you think you could tack something together at Oxford SC Russ?  Or maybe Time Lord could host at Banbury SC?
