Actually Graeme I'm surprised you've never tried a Vortex.

Dude you sail a Firefly & a Mirror.. (need I mention the others?)

Probably on a puddle.. Wink


Yup, on a puddle.

Just possible I've sailed other boats in other places, though, so have worked out that if you want to go fast, you need somehing either fairly tippy or something made stable in ways that you seem to object to, though I'm not sure why.

With a sign next to it.

It took a windsurfer to design the perfect dinghy

Embarrassed Um, might have been a bit premature with that last Dinghy Show post.. [make mental note don't post after friday night pub ride].

It's a nightmare just getting in to that show, chances of building a boat and getting in to that show are two, slim and none. Took us three years just to get that windsurf stand back last year, and we didn't re book since we've baled on windsurfing hardware products now.

But I am going ahead with it and hope to be a little bit radical, and radical as we all know takes time and doesn't always work the way it should.
