Those 470's do look great. That vid would entice anyone into them - possibly even GRF! The skill of sailing them in a blow with a symetric kite amazes me. |

HannahJ.... as your Mirrors call "Dolphin" I thought you might like this...
link by the way thanks for the advice on the Mirror a while back. My little'n is really enjoying sailing our Mirror. Out on 20kts + in Cornwall the other week with him helming a cracking 3 sailer. That'll be only the second time he's sailed with a kite up! |

Didn't get the link with my boat, but great video!
Brilliant, glad he likes it, probably the only boat he could helm in that much with all three sails! Get him on the circuit  |

Well it was doing a lot of leaping, kind of reminded me of a Dolphin!
I think next year will be the earliest for the Mirror circuit. We need to find him a crew. And he needs a bit more time in the boat. As he is much more confident in his Oppy I think we'll build his skills up there and get the club racing going in the Mirror before taking to the road. But it's on the horizon for sure. |
