well, yes.  One boat for the puddle, one boat for the big lake.  I inherited some money, these will probably be my last full on racing boats so I thought I would go for it.  I do like the vareo, but I'm worried I will tire of it quite quite quickly.  The other thing, conversely, will tire me out quite quickly too.

And yes, Baltic Wharf.  the CVRDA has a demolition derby there at the end of every season, just so they can give themselves something to work on over winter.

It'll be interesting to hear how you think the two compare after a few more sails.

The Invictus C Class wing was made (overnight) in the yard next to Baltic Wharf. From the sublime to the ridiculous...but which way?

Snipe, still popular in some parts of the world. Mainly America north and south. This pic taken on a Sussex beach though, 1950s
