I was out last night.  I finally met jeffers, who is very nice. <waves>

 In the short time I was on the water I managed to rip my new wetsuit, stick my hook through the side tank, realise the cleat was missing from my centreboard so it wouldn't stay down, not be able to unhook till the very last minute because I couldn't get off my new tacking sticks whilst fast approaching a bunch of reeds, I couldn't remember how to do my boots up, got stuck inside my new BA.....in other words, I need to get out more. 

It was worth it for 20 minutes of lovely sailing though...
the same, but different...

Don't think you'd find many here to disagree with you on that one..

The 5oh is back from its winter rest this weekend, so a re-rig and bimble followed by a Sunday afternoon sail I think - heaven

Fab afternoon on the water today at Grafham.  I sailed a Challenger for the first time too - great fun.

I was going to go up to Oxford for the 600 open meeting this weekend, but a combination of only just having it back in one piece today, having to teach tomorrow, and parents wanting to work on the cruiser this weekend, has left me having to settle for rock dodging off hill head in the early AM/late PM, to get the tide. Hey ho cant complain a sail is a sail.
600 732, will call it Sticks and Stones when i get round to it.
Also International 14, 1318
