maybe thats bit to much of a challenge
cats don't really go down well at our club with like a 3 mile trek up the beach when tide is out the vortex looks a good possibility and we have on at the club that should soon be up for sale and there is the whole north sea to play in |

Of course so much depends on location-I was tempted to look at this as I went very near there Sunday, as to agreeing to deliver Fireball to new custodian (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/13F-Sailing-Dinghy-Project-/280645846620?pt=UK_Sporting_Goods_Sailing_Boats_ET&hash=item4157cbc65c Pacer I believe, is that an Adventuress sail I see?)and brought back the pear, bearing fruit in the form of some excellent fittings, mast, sails rudders and combi trailer, all of which I hope to make use of on/in either another Phantom Hull, or a Harrier, and there is Phantom training & an open at Alton Water, this weekend-if I can persuade a mate to lend his Casper.

Just bought a Hurricane 5.9 for exactly that reason. Even looks the part with the new SX main sail.

If the Vortes falls through try and Contender. You can get a reasonable boat for your money and they are a hoot to sail....

PM me if you are after a vortex assy. I am on the cusp of selling mine but I love however it might just be the push I need to make my mind up and get her sold. She's a goody.

You'll struggle to find an SX rigged one for a grand but a 2 sail Hurricane, or a Sport can be had for about that. They are incredibly tough boats. Andy Webb is your best bet for info.
If you get a good base boat it's easy to upgrade almost everything up to SX rig with flatop main, self tacker etc as you can afford the upgrades.
