Did I see yet another young Escrit moving up the rankings there in a Topper? Just what the world needs that, more Escrits cluttering up the start line.. Wink


Yes Graham, another young Escritt - my nephew who's now at National Squad level so looking like he'll be another thorn in the side of you southerners! Now regularly beating his dad and me, but at least he hasn't quite learnt how to windsurf yet, so we still have some (diminishing) bragging rights left.

Glad you all like the video. Posting a link to it on the Videos section might have been a good idea so I'll do that now!

I'm afraid I wimped out of Grafham.  Way too windy for me in that boat.  I'm now wondering if I can get my contedering skills up to speed for the Steve Nicks. 
the same, but different...

Any male sailor at the Brass Monkey that takes home wet gear in a Ikea blue bag can you please check if you have the correct one.
Oliver Blackburn's bag was taken by mistake, this will have a Crewsaver bouyancy aid with Topper intermediate squad badge on the back.
Please contact me on 01484686118 thanks

Mark is the boat builder. Also the current Supernova national champion.
