Watch this space, if we get another 2 ultra's back on the water this winter then we are going to need some more crew.

Has anyone ever recruited crew from a Forum before. Sounds a bit risky but could throw up some interesting combinations!!

Jocky there a lot of people on here that talk the talk!  (myself included probably)  But really dont know or have experience of much, bit like my Mrs Over opinionated and ill-informed

It's a hoot to read some of the...theories and tuning tips

But as I said it would throw up some interesting combinations

HAHA yer there are some right "numpties" out there! Cheers for your details mate - ill drop you a line! that sounds good!

If theres a spare boat goin, could I helm one if I rally up the troops?! Think in terms of recruiting, itll be best to sail with one newbie - see how they get on, if they can talk the talk, and walk the walk - then get them to recomend people! Just something ive learnt through the years.

If you ignore what I just said I can put you in touch with some people in Southampton who can sail! & im hopefully moving back end of the year anyways!

Good luck with the sailing, Im still hunting round for a replacement No2 mast! If anyone has an I14 carbon stick let me know

There are a few I14 carbon sticks lying out the back of Itchenor if you ask Andy Penman who they belong to I am certain people would not mind selling them.

haha - old times mate, lets start over! Think im gona get one of those S10 jobbies, but at the moment im jus concentrating on racing rather than speed times! I know the 12 is f********king fast downwind, so im  when sailing! Thats the main thing right!

How long is a 700 mast? & 29er310 - cheers, ive already been in touch with Andy Penman.

Are they actually quick boats? I've never heard a definitive opinion.
