The RS600FF spiderman doesnt quite look the same as the standard RS600 Spiderman.

This was a competition where readers where invited to enter photograhs they had taken. Take a look at http://www.yachtsandyachting.com/dinghysailingshow/

Is the grimace because of what the guy in the water is hanging on to?

rope with a wooden batten through the centreboard slot would solve all sorts of issues in that pic

Unless there was an urgency to get the boat away from something, the support crew should help a little more!

IE, get a rope over the top to a shoud and use the boat to get the bloody thing up!

Like the fact someone was watching with a camera too and not doing anything.
