Apparently they've just won boat of the year for 2017! I didn't realise we'd had 2017 yet, must have been asleep longer than I thought.....

It strikes me nobody ever asks what we'd like, they just punt out something either they think we'd like because it looks like something popular already, or it's something they like or are familiar with, which basically why the world is populated with dross, not a perfect boat amongst them.
Until the stupid classes stop refusing to let their own boats be updated to more modern thinking then there are always going to be new boats turfing up with somebody's convoluted idea of what's needed. Case to point being that heavy old Contender that long since should have been given a makeover and screw the older boats, move on ffs. |

Eer ... you mean something like a V2 for instance ?  (Sorry - but that really was a wide open net after all !) Edited by Cirrus - 04 Jan 17 at 11:25am |
