I probably won't... I've spent every penny I've got getting the boat over here, so not about to spend more sending it back again. Also don't think I'm going to make any of the qualifying events. ------------- Cherub 2649 "Dangerous Strawberry |

Thanks everybody. Your all great! The rigs got packed into the container today. This is what the number one (I think) looks like. Now just imagine a red hull underneath, with strawberries painted all over it.

I was down at Hayling last night and the 12's look INCREDIBLE!

No.2
