the weather was incredible, but the wind was rubbish! Had 3 days of
lightwind sailing and a cancelled day due to there being no wind. One
race was good fun though and there are some sweet pics of us on
fotoboat.com. Just don't look at the last few... something obviously
broke there!  1st. Andy P and Tom Gruitt 2nd. Ben Brown and Daryl Wilkinson 3rd Gav and Brother Simms There should be a full report on the cherub website tonight i think. th!-- var SymRealOnLoad; var SymRealOnUnload; function SymOnUnload() { window.open = SymWinOpen; if(SymRealOnUnload != null) SymRealOnUnload(); } function SymOnLoad() { if(SymRealOnLoad != null) SymRealOnLoad(); window.open = SymRealWinOpen; SymRealOnUnload = window.onunload; window.onunload = SymOnUnload; } SymRealOnLoad = window.onload; window.onload = SymOnLoad; //--> ------------- http://www.facebook.com/bearfootdesign - BEARFOOT DESIGN Cherub 2648 - Comfortably Numb |

There was loads of sunshine, and two vaguely windy races. It was a lovely venue with very well organised racing. There were lots of completely new faces, including Stuarthop & Kasey3000 (aka Kita) who won the Vintage Boat trophy! We sold our boat at the end of the event, which meant no towing home, but no boat Just a case of building the next one now... ------------- Fly Cherub! |

well in the fact that it came second you would kind of have to assume
that it not only stayed in one piece, it also stayed in one piece and
went very fast in all directions!
