Mumbles will probably have three boats travelling with Tresaith in attendance we could have had the Un-Official Welsh Cat Sailing Games but due to split fleets this will not be possible. ------------- MP*MULTIHULLS The UK F16 Dealer http://www.mp-multihulls.co.uk |

Mark, What have you got coming? How about we get together over a beer at Grafham & organise a Welsh Cat Open somewhere next year just to show the WYA that there is the demand out there....Maybe we could hold it at Tresaith since, despite all the odds our wee club will have survived 20 years next year We're planning to travel up Friday, so will probably arrive sometime Saturday morning after losing a few trailer wheels on the way. |

Paul Warren, Blade F16 GBR 801. Not sure if I'll be 1-up, or 2-up with Ann. Mark - are you planning to do the singlehanders, or the handicap fleet? John and Paul are sailing 2-up, and I think Alan and Jan are coming, and I may be sailing with Ann (although may not if the majority of F16s do the singlehanders). Personally I'd like to see the F16 fleet sail on the same start. Paul |

I've just found out that there is a raffle to be drawn on Saturday night at 18:00 for 3 pressure washers. Each boat that enters will get a ticket, BUT you must be in the top Bar at 18:00 to claim it, If you win and you are not there, it will be re-drawn.

I will be quite happy sailing in the handicap fleet with the rest of the 16's, it would be a shame to split up and sail in differing fleets. Staying together would also help promote the F16 as a competitive cat either sailed 1 or 2 up. With this in mind we ( associaton) should try and get a few prizes organised. I have got a few Mumbles Y.C glass tankards hidden away in the attic if we're short !!!!!! Oh, and I've also got a Dachet 2006 49er First Crew tumbler if you want to swap? We could have hit onto something here. Each F16 Competitor could bring a small prize i.e engraved glass etc and then we mix them around abit and give them back out as prizes, nobody would go home empty handed and at the next event if you don't like the prize you were given you take it back and get a new one. I don't think this idea would make the constitution but it would be a laugh!! What are the Helensborough (Scots) clan doing? You are travelling the furthest distance to sail, so we should make the effort and try and fit in with your plans. ------------- MP*MULTIHULLS The UK F16 Dealer http://www.mp-multihulls.co.uk |

Any idea how many F16's will be coming ? 3 Scots, 2 Welsh and a minimum of 4 English. Unfortunately, we can't make any jokes about the Irish. ------------- MP*MULTIHULLS The UK F16 Dealer http://www.mp-multihulls.co.uk |
