Hi,

Who is off to the boat show this year? and what are you looking for?

Will Y+Y be there?

Do any forum members meet up there or is that a bad idea?

We'll be doing the 'Battle of the Classes' which apparently is going to be a dinghy race on Victoria Dock on the second weekend. Now I've sailed on Victoria Dock, It is very long & thin and surrounded by skyscrapers, so the wind is a tad shifty.

Do come & say hello, we'll be in a blue & red striped boat with a heart on the sail!

Fly Cherub!

I will be there Saturday 8th,

It would be a nice idea, though the show runs for a week and people have different days that they are able to attend. Be good if the Y+Y stand had a 'forum' visitors book on their stand, at least we could see who has been or see who is around. What about a meeting up time on each day for 'forum'ites' say 11am or 3pm each day at the Y+Y stand, though I guess the guys at YY would be very busy and not want their pitch being used as 'meeting corner' we could wear a pink carnation!!!!     though as said, it would be nice to put faces to some crazy names.

Might not be as easy as you think....good handicap on a well sailed Oppy and if they have the breeze to start and it dies later on then it could be close.  There's not much space in those docks

well knowing the guys sailing the torndo they wont do to badly, but on handicap doesnt the oppy have to start 2 hours and somthing before the tornado as its a persuit race or will they half the times as its a winter race??

imagine the monster windshadows in the dock, i will talk to them and find out if they are going to fly the kite lol wouldnt that be fun!!!!

I think we should demand a Y&Y forum users lounge, like the RYA one.

What should it have in it though? (Apart from Playmobil boats and a bath!!!!)
