Good to hear that wooden Scorps can still be competitive  Big smile A boat I've always liked the look of but never sailed (no fleets locally).

Best wishes from deep in the woods

Just imagine if you went out for a mountain ramble and he flew past, I think it would be a very brown trouser moment. The guy is nuts, but very skillful, wouldn't take much to be grazing your chin on the footpath
Everything I say is my opinion, honest

I kinda like the fact 5 boats shot the line and had to go back.... it's a race after all, no sense starting minutes after every one else... just looks fantastic every 4 yrs when they set off, I've loved this race and it's whole vibe since watching Alain Guatier's Baggages Superior campaign many races ago.

....you can polish up your Francais with this clip too!

Seriously though, no one looked wet!

Took out a guy from school the other day in the 49er- he had only sailed picos and firefly's before- so it was a bit of a jump for him! He loved it though- was a great little blast in about 10knots of wind. He did pretty well too.  





Tried adding into the post but it seems to just be blank space- so here is the link- http://youtu.be/I4Ph1IxZo1U 


(For attentive ones- Old rig is on, but being changed over for good tomorrow :) )
