Crew wanted for club racing at Paignton Sailing Club. Comet Trio 15 ft assymetric medium handicap (PY 1085) Easy and very user friendly and great in a blow. I also race an Albacore (wooden competitive) which is under modifications ready for the summer. I travel to occasional Opens and Regattas Comet Trio Nationals at Exe next August. Age or experience not important just able to work and party hard (Fun is the priority but winning is good  ). 9 to 12.5 stone would be perfect. ------------- Steve Ashford |

Welcome to the Forum, Steve - how are things down on the sea? You were missed at the club dinner and prizegiving - it went on far too long without you there with a wheelbarrow... ------------- Firefly 2324, Puffin 229, Minisail 3446 Mirror 70686 |

Hi Rupert. I'm getting it in the neck from She who must be obeyed for possessing 2 boats. Now I know I just have to say "look at Rupert's fleet" Glad to see thanks to your hard work and publicity you have re-established the Minisails. I think everyone had one in the seventies including me! I am publicising Paignton's Regattas in June. 11-12 May we are hosting the POSH (Paignton Open for Single-handers) 29 -30 June the PODD (yes you've guessed it Double handers) Would be lovely to get some of you landlocked pondies for some real fun. The POSH was a great success last year with large fleets of Blazes Phantoms RS600's 100's D-Ones and Contenders. Any single-hander is welcome. Martin has been down to crew in the Comet last September and Dave and Hannah are commuting from Tewkesbury and Exeter in their Albacore. Regards and festive good wishes to all at Whitefriars and hope you don't win the Boxing Day bottle yet again!"  ------------- Steve Ashford |
