Jim

I have the demo donkey at Lymington right now, but may be going to the euro's. Given that you often desecrate this bit of coast with your windy puff activity, why don't you come down this weekend and try it here. Ask Rodney. You might catch a glimpse of the round the island race on Saturday. Saturday afternoon will have rib cover and you could always come and race on Sunday morning - I'll bring my camera LOL I wrenched my shoulder a month ago when rumour has it I capsized, but I am sure it was just pulling the boat up the slip so I am off dinghies for a while  Embarrassed.

Because of the vagaries of weather we have found it best to get people into the boats on a first come basis. It seems to have worked well at other venues so best that we stick with the formula as it stands.

Yep, we're just trying to judge how much carpet we'll have to put on the beach, to launch all this precious hardware, we'll have a few SUP's as well, are you going to bring that Carb One down? I'd like a bash on that with my rig..
If the weather holds as it is at the moment it'll be fair and flat..

Carb One will be in the roof.... You can use my tushingham rig, i promise not to snap it and post you wielding a tushy all over the internet.... Much.

We should get Mark LB to come across- assuming his Hampshire passport hasn't expired

Oh, nd cheers Rodney. I promise not to gruanch it on the shingle in homage to Graeme's RS100 experiences...

When you feel the weight and the power of my Cuben Fibre rig, you'll never be happy to use a Tushingham ever again. But you can take solace in the fact it uses a Tushingham mast.

You call it a wine cooler Rodney, I was thinking more like an emergency toilet (we have all been there miles out, all day on the water. Trying to stand up with hikers unfurled off the back of a boat in waves!
