The last time I went to Grafham (think it was 2004) the bar shut at 6 pm much to our disgust. There was a pub at the end of the drive that did a roaring trade from the 40 phantom and 15 vortex sailors though.
Everything I say is my opinion, honest

Broxbourne to sitting in the Italien in Wakefield, enjoying the first Brandy and Babycham of the evening, in less than 3 hours seems near enough to me, any nearer there may be consequences Embarrassed

Ah!  I have just woken up.  Speaking of Bandit Watch I contend that the Punk, Phantom and X1 are all bandits and that all of the boat from 5th down have very generous handicaps so it's clear, to me, that the Finn PY is spot on.

There were only three boats present that were not bandits, the RS400, us in the EPS's and Rockhopper in the L2k, the rest of you should be forced to wear Sombrero's and a Bandelero next year.

Nice videos of the event!
Icon looks very slippery & fast and the X1 a real mans boat!(must be great for inland sailing)

Maybe next year :) The population of Anglesey are in uproar that you've split the island between A and B ;)
