At Lee on the Solent we were given six of these little dinghies for the Cadets
to have a trial in for the last week. Whilst the winds have been too strong
over the last two evenings (F6 -F7) the weekend of the 17th/18th June
proved popular with the youngsters to try their luck with them. I will enclose
a nice photo of a "Synchronised Sinking" LOL......Has anyone else had the
opportunity to try these little dinghies out??

These boats are great! believe it or not, I took one out for some team racing, and managed to break it, not suprising, considering I weigh the best part of 85kg! good fun tho, if a bit flimsy

when you say behind the mast it sounded like you meant hiding behind it like comic characters hide behind trees.
