Hi Andy and all the nice guys n' gals at Y+Y (grovel, grovel  )

how about showing  the  sail logo also?

many times I have seen a nice looking boat and can not find out what the sail logo represents  - even if a guide could be printed once a year it would help us new guys..........sorry to crab on about this one.

Isn't all this information printed (including logo) each year in the magazine's guide to classes?  Do you still print it Gael? What month is it published?

Garry... I am sure it was in Y+Y that I first saw such printed information, many many tides ago, when i lived in the Southend area ( home of Y+Y as it happens! ) It's quite probable that a copy of it still resides in Mums loft!!

 Hi editing folk of Y+Y ( guessing that you read our postings)

What are your views on getting the information we are seeking published in your fab mag.

cheers!

AndyHill, the pages you request exist - we run them as a rotating
repeating series as part of our 'essentials' section.

Also, every year towards the end of November/early December we publish
our annual Racing Classes Review (this year's will be out on November 17)
where there is a photo of every class with the basic info on all the classes
in one issue, plue info on national/euro/world champs and more. We
have been using photos, not sail logos, but this is something we could
look into including, although with 160+ to source we will not be able to
do it in time for this year.
