> 12ft skiff, Havoc, No.5

You're putting sail numbers on skiffs? Have you no sense of tradition? Real skiffs don't have sail numbers and don't have class insignia.

Maybe not quite Tom, all else being equal big rigs do after all cost more money than little ones, but its true that over the long term having three rigs isn't as expensive as you'd think at first because instead of buying one new set of rags that last one season you buy three new sets of rags but they last three seasons.

Hi Jim, yes the boats are numberd at the moment - as its still a new class and not everyone can get a sole sponsor for the first race! Next season im hoping to be Team *** not just No5!

But to quote - more expensive to replace the big rigs, not when you have a sponsor whos a sail maker & will "give u rag"!!

-12ft skiff, Team 'CST Composites'
-Many thanks goes out to all of my sponsors.
Ignore my user name, my views are of a 12ft skiff
