See!  You are ganging up on my hero!  It's not his fault that he's incompetent incontinent  Unhappy  I guess that when one gets to a certain age things happen. Graeme, if you read this there is help at hand  http://www.incontinencechoice.co.uk/?gclid=CNi2886AgbICFSTHtAodVDAAUg

Back on subject now, Graeme please don't feel bad about the possible pollution you may cause to British Waterways by competing in the FOM.

Thanks Mike!

Here's the chance for the critics of the BBC Olympic presenters to show us how it should be done.  If anyone out there has a suitable camcorder and would like to volunteer I am sure that we can compensate with free beer for the Saturday night  Big smile

This could be the Nothe all over again  Wink

And that tech they used at the Finn Gold Cup that gps mapped each boat and showed speed and heading updated every few secs

I may be taking the 100 to genoa this weekend, so may not make it. Tricky decision, sun, sailing and the Med or GRF spouting about bubbles and salinity...
Great book for Club Sailors here

I may be taking the 100 to genoa this weekend, so may not make it. Tricky decision, rain, sailing if we are lucky and don't get a storm, stolen passport and credit cards (maybe even car and boat), salmonella poisoning and the Med or GRF giving us all wisdom about bubbles and salinity...
