but it will have historical returns mate - the PYAG might favour recent electronically data, but they aren't going to chuck out the old stuff out of hand if the new pool is only coming from a couple of sources.

Well Rodney has seemingly lost a sale as a result of this, and that's one less boat to beat at the first Nationals. Whether RS has gained one (or maybe more on a fleet deal with a newly elected commodore ![]() I rather suspect Graeme is an very similar situation to me, where a boat fund foolishly left in a bank rather than Epoxy, is cuckold for cushions, curtains and an essential 'wine cooler'.

The RYA should issue a temp. figure and adjust later as returns build, just like they have always done. that's why we pay our RYA membership. |

First high profile meeting of two new products competing for the same space ...
Send in your best jockey ... register the big rig at the last moment once you have seen the forecast and once you have seen the PYs set ... Whip the opposition and crow about it for months to come ... job done... |

beats turning up and racing scratch and having your arse handed to you on a plate despite out numbering your opposition by over 2:1... ... all whilst using the PY system to justify some spurious marketing hype that you've got the fastest production singlehander: Edited by kneewrecker - 19 Sep 14 at 10:54am |

This one has been 'done to death' already surely .... and do not
expect too much 'official feedback' from anyone. So if you like the boat sail it
primarily because of that as PNs will shift around over time anyway.
I do however suggest doing the Sailjuice events as a priority. The
in-built 'weighting' is that most classes are sailed by good(ish) crews who are
mostly sailing decent competitive boats (ie no significant dilution by a 'mass'
of less-than-competitive (no travelling) club returns. ![]() Mike L. PS - But any boat that beats us in our Icon (substitute name for your class if you must) ... Remember Rule One ? Yes - that's right 'other' boats that beat 'us' are de facto handicap bandits ... and naturally if we should prevail - as we should well that is of course simply skill. See a few of you at Southampton on Sunday .... Edited by blaze720 - 19 Sep 14 at 11:32am |

What actually happened, I spoke with all the RS folk about other stuff, even met Mark down there, organised a demo boat for a week for my club and the lake folk there is at least one member down there interested in it as well. I have no personal interest in the Aero having tried it and even if I had, these events would have forced cancellation of that as well until something is settled. Then driving back, Rodney rang me to tel me it was coming next Thursday at which point I was happy the wait was over, it was only once home and picking up I think it was on Facebook, that the red mist about the 1010 thing came down, then I mailed the cancellation if you want the absolutely correct timeline. I'm still very angry, & frustrated and have now mailed Bas Edmonds, if you must know. These trade folk need to get into a room together and sort this out, it is ridiculous, I'm not going to buy something that will be worth half what i pay for it in a few months time, either Aero or Zero simply because other forces decide what it's performance capability should be.
