Should be entertaining all the boat swapping on the water between races 3 & 4 Rodney as being b2b there won't be time to get on shore.

My personal preference is that course are sailed over a trapezoidal course so there is a bit of everything in each lap, but if not triangle, sausage to even things up. Pure W/L will be boring. WHichever you go for there looks like there will be lots of laps even in a 30 min race.....

I like the beer comment though, well done Broxbourne

Well, were it not so far away I would have turned up to watch and take embarassing pictures. You do realise that a 13 year old girl who posted once will turn up in a slimy Topper and blow you all away?

Yep!  We will make an allowance for getting ashore and swapping boats after R3 and R7.  Thanks for that  Smile  Somehow I have already given my ship up for Pondmonkey to sail for the Saturday swap race  Ermm
It's a small pond so we will have to see what's possible regarding courses on the day.  Problem is that everyone will have a different preference depending on which boat they sail.  I think we can expect shifty winds so it will be a bit like the Nothe or worse  Wink

P.S. best food choice has got to be pasties, any idea what will be served just out of interest?

If Ruscoe has pledged his boat (whoops) there's always Sunday Wink
