It has a whole detatchable lorry to go with it.

Maybe that would be a good way of getting a boat round to open meetings?

That reminds me of what I saw at last years Medway Dinghy Regatta in the car park:

Go on one of you, try it! I would but I can't sail anything not even my own boat and anyway my heart will not take any excitment (officially) until they put bits of pig in it or more stainless steel or something.
