The 'former boy' was also very good when very young. He followed a different path (winning his first nationals at 18). It is a very difficult path for a parent to follow. Someone once said to me, 'Shut up John you sound like a gymkhana mother' which made me laugh a lot!

I can attest to the fact that the 'scooter family enjoy life and sailing. There is certainly no gymkhana element in that family!

Having said that, I firmly believe that Mr Scooter has encouraged Scooter Junior in to Finn's so that he can borrow it! How do you do a wink?

Believe me, there's been no encouragement involved (I know how much they cost! )

Simon and Brenda are the ones to blame, having hatched this plan with Cameron back at Brightlingsea last spring!

Self interest there, doesn't Simon have one to sell? Keep it up though, he's obviously got talent that the rest wish we had. I hope that he goes a long way with it, even if your wallet doesn't
Everything I say is my opinion, honest

Oh good self publicity of our wonderful children. I am proud of my kids too. No sponsorship and little RYA support as they discourage mixed boats at this stage. This gybe was from 18 months ago. They are still smiling and a good team. They went out this Sunday by them selves to train. My daughter is crewing and we found the helm at the next door yacht club. (27 seconds only)

PS Rooster did give us a discount for a set of poly pros when Emma asked for help. Thanks.

looking better for sure.... and I mean no disrespect to the sailor, but it would be interesting to see one of the handier kite handlers out there take on those gybes.  

 Watch Ian Renilson's MPS videos and you'd see what I mean.

Apologies now to all that I might offend but nothing from that stable is in my future.
