In an attempt to try and get this thread back on topic I am pleased to report that the D-Zero Roadshow visit to Yorkshire Dales SC was a great success, even if TR lied about the weather with me expecting shorts and T Shirt conditions and not Polartec temperatures Having said that we all seem to have, somehow, caught the sun on Saturday It was my first visit to YDSC and I just loved it for its stunning location high up in the Yorkshire Dales surrounded by beautiful scenery. The new clubhouse would be the envy of many sailing clubs and the hospitality was second to none. If I lived within 50 miles of the club I would certainly join.

We have had fantastic feedback from all of the Roadshows to date with the order book continuing to grow. The first production D-Zeros will arrive in the UK shortly and, with production capacity growing from 3 boats per week at present to 6 boats a week from mid-August, we are able to quote late August/early September delivery for new orders

Our Roadshow dates are filling up with a full program for July, soon to be published. If you would like s to visit your club for D-Zero testing please email me.

Nice try Rodney.....sadly it failed! 

one another note if the FOM is taking place how about D-0 owners try to get together? I am up for it depending on dates of course.....

An unstayed rig powers up as you let the tension off the mainsheet (at least it does in the D-One).

Yes but in terms of tacking the draft also moves forwards so reduces the likelihood of irons

If only you'd been a local, you'd send a whippet after it, not snap it on an iPhone.

Last time I bought a new car the depreciation was more than the price of a D-Zero when I drove it out of the forecourt (actually I think it may have been delivered but same applies)

Would that be a 'greased whippet upwind'?
