I'm going on the Saturday.  We hope to buy her indoors a female friendly BA and I will genrally be gawping at the lovely boats, especially moth, kestrel, contender, phantom, streaker, byte.  There is no point in looking at the l2k stand because they all look the same.  My 14 doesn't look like other 14s, and sadly there is no longer a marauder class....and there'll be nothing for the french thing either..
the same, but different...

Well if I thought there were a market of well heeled ageing midgets in need of boat speed, I'd get right on it. 
As it is, two more brands to cope with, a lengthy trip to the fatherland and a viscious bout of girl flue have slowed the V-Twins progress somewhat. That and strong advice not to go near the place without something retail ready to go, advice which I must admit I'd give myself following my own experiences.

That is, if I had something to market and buyers wanting to purchase of course.

I shall try and look you up, I always check out the 5 oh stand, it's kind of a self test, each year I get to work out what one more of the ropes do...

I'm not working there this year thank the Lord I shall be trying to persuade my pal to shell out and buy himself a new Phantom the tightwad. I saw one with a traveller thingy on it, it looked sexy enough to persuade him.

I'd offer to help on the Alto stand, but things have been going so much better for them since I stopped recommending it.. LOL

Rupert, you boat whore!!  Tongue

I'll be there mainly looking at 420 stuff.  Lets face it, I'm so damn light I'm pretty much confined to boats for kids Cry.  I've tried growing, I really have but I'm wafer thin and I'm going to have to accept it. 

Anyone fancy meeting up for a drink pm me, I'll be there on the saturday. 


Doug,

Will be there on sat. Probably be on the 14 stand for a while. Its not like you'll miss me!

the Saturday for me- definitely interested in seeing (even though I won't be buying any time soon) the iCon and X1, and I'll be spending some time trying to convince people that, no really, they can sail a more extreme boat (B14 stand- this year, nowhere near the ex-boat builder)

going on the saturday, with wife and 15 year daughter( credit card might take a hit! LOL)

keen to see the new icon and x1, marvel how people sail extreme boats and say hi to some old friends on the british moth and lightning stands, and hi to some new friends on the supernova stand.

Firefly stand on the Sat, Lighnings on the Sun. Hopefully some time to go look around at some point - certainly want to see the Icon and X1 (Riverboat) and gawp at the more extreme boats.
