Was thinking that, as long as its filled with 50 newtons of buoyancy, would look good and get me on the back page of Y&Y. ------------- Life's a reach, then you gybe |

Lozza, I'm going back up on Monday.........in a car...........DoH!!! I'm getting leg cramp already just thinking about it As for the 59er, still not as good as the infamous ""SCUD MISSILE" 505, might want to wait until we're old chaps to start sailing one or even better go Cat sailing............. ------------- Dennis Watson 49er GBR735 http://www.helensburghsailingclub.co.uk/ - Helensburgh S.C http://www.noblemarine.co.uk/home.php3?affid=560 - Boat Insurance from Noble Marine |

Apparantly they're running racing over the winter at Helensburgh, could
be a laugh for a break in revision. Enjoy your 11 hours in a car
on monday. Easyjet for me, 1 hr 15 minutes

I'll probably be heading back down on the 2nd. Racing at Helensburgh might be interesting, do you know how many boats are still in the dinghy park? ------------- Dennis Watson 49er GBR735 http://www.helensburghsailingclub.co.uk/ - Helensburgh S.C http://www.noblemarine.co.uk/home.php3?affid=560 - Boat Insurance from Noble Marine |
