I finaly managed to get this photo on ! If I gave a list of credits for all the kind people, particularly Black no Sugar, who helped me achieve this the list would be endless. The picture is of my son playing arround at Easter in his Magnum 8 Moth. Anyone recognise it? It was called " Superlight for extra sensitivity " errr... but we will draw a line under that!

Clap Clap Clap Way to go! I knew you had it in you!!

 

Good photo too... but I won't comment on the name: I just wonder about the length needed to write it on the side.

Those wide(ish) Moths are great.  I think its a real pity the class doesn't do more to  encourage them like the N12s do with their older boats.  At least they are vaguely practicle.

Unfortunately as they were built so lightly at the time they tend to not stand
up to abuse very well and are now really at the point where they start to
disintegrate...
Anything in carbon foam is still in high demand as they last so long! (Stand
up Mr Patterson, 4026 is still looking beautifull!)

Old Moth fragility is a problem, I have spent much time fixing it. The bloody grebe must have swum away, tired of waiting for stardom.
