Awfully bad news I'm afraid, I have to miss the dinghy show as I've got to go and work in the UAE for 6 weeks.....no no I won't take any sympathy!  What you could do for me though is let me know i there is any good sailing/somewhere to get some singlehander trg or racing in around abu dahbi.  Any advice greatfully recieved. 
I might be sailing it, but it's still sh**e!

My mate used to live out there - ages ago.  Anyway about 13 yrs ago she sailed and did some racing at the Abu Dahbi beach club [i think? - will check with her].  I know she owned her own boat, so dont know about hiring, but I will ask her.
