Bring it down to Felpham SC for the Blaze Nationals

...eeer - nice idea in some respects but not really appropriate and I think some might notice it does nto quite meet Blaze class rules .... but more than fast enough of course.  Maybe  if Felpham are having an open regatta some time afterwards ?

The other ones mentioned above .... we will try our best to get to as many as possible - with Peaky's boat as well when he is available.... (I should have just given him a standard rope pack ... too much target confusion at the chandlers by the sound of it !)

I'm just starting to fit out my hull, shouldn't take too long but I've already spent hours picking the rope colours! Will post photo's when there is something to show.

Last year the official rule was you had to be a member of a club that was a member of the east kent yachting association, I think that opens it up to about 4 clubs! Hopefully that will be waived this year.

Well I suppose we don't use stock ORANGE lines at Cirrus !!  should go very 'nicely' with the red trimmed Hydes of course ...  Now I'm all for freedom of choice but ....  but maybe sent the pics in monochrome ....

Any name for '04' yet ?

Still working on the name, but I have a few ideas.

The orange rope was a very good deal - I can't imagine why!

don't you just love the minimalist look...looking good Peaky. Will it be ready by the visitors day? Tongue

Having the number "Oh For" gives loads of great possible names, most of which Y&Y wouldn't be able to publish...

"Oh For ... Peaky's sake"  ... one of the very few that might make it past Mark.

One of my ex-Blazes is still called 'Pure Fun & Magic'

PS - Icon is not that minimalist once fully roped but it is not exactly a Merlin .... just almost as fast  ;-)
