The Alto's out of action, needs a refit and my crew is still poorly and not really experienced enough to deal with an hour and fifty five minutes of being trapped in a confined space with er dinghy sailors in various states of control.

I was thinking of EPS ing it but looking at the handicap advantage the laser has and the disadvantage the poor old EPS would have in the starting order, I feel I'd probably very quickly end up in a world of Merlin. So unless a Miracle happens by a Miracle sailmaker it's unlikely...

On that foggy year we were going slowly downwind trying to keep the kite working and suddenly I smelled pipe smoke, Condor Slice I believe (my late father was a pipe smoker). The smoke which was travelling faster than the boats indicated the approach of an old National 18 which passed us with the ancient crew smoking the biggest pipe I ever saw.

They do have Darts on site but there is no chance of launching a Tornado at QMSC, you wont get down the isles and launching is at a 45 degree angle.

Don't be such a prat.  You're not going to win anyway.  I'll most likely be floundering round under 1020 whereas most clubs levy 1074, so I'm not going to win either, but at least I'm giving it a go. 

MTFU!
