Not sure I would want to handle the rope afterwards. 😱 ------------- Nick D-Zero 316 |

clearly not. If you’d eased the kicker (it’s clearly too tight), sorted the kite retrieving line that appears hooked around the clew and sheeted the kite properly, you might have the right to moon the camera. But not if the helm is so revulsed they sit as far away from you as they can (understandably), even though you are perched too far forwards, burying the bow. Hence caption is easy, “here’s an arse, flashing his arse” HNY Graeme.

PS and the kite tack looks too far from the pole-end but I’ll let you off that, and I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt on the jib-sheeting too ------------- http://clubsailor.co.uk/wp/club-sailor-from-back-to-front/" rel="nofollow - Great book for Club Sailors here |

| The crease in the nasty cross-cut spinnaker is equally offensive! |

The entire boat is offensive, probably the worse boat on the market parading as a 'good class' to be in.
I honestly cannot think of a worse double hander to recommend to anyone, nasty nasty boat. It's only purpose to serve as a platform for offence. ------------- https://www.corekite.co.uk/snow-accessories-11-c.asp" rel="nofollow - Snow Equipment Deals https://www.corekite.co.uk" rel="nofollow - New Core Kite website |

The crease is there because the retrieving line is hooked around the clew and probably also because the sail is oversheeted ------------- http://clubsailor.co.uk/wp/club-sailor-from-back-to-front/" rel="nofollow - Great book for Club Sailors here |

It's my kitesurfing helmet, which I'd been up to before I was co-opted into the boat against my better judgement, can't remember the exact details, but I do wakeup screaming having been at the mercy of the young sea witch helm, and I'm only just over the PTSD..  ------------- https://www.corekite.co.uk/snow-accessories-11-c.asp" rel="nofollow - Snow Equipment Deals https://www.corekite.co.uk" rel="nofollow - New Core Kite website |
