Looks like the top gear guys are at it again, but James has upgraded his rig to a 400. They were apparently trying to cross the channel in their "boats", but Hammond and James managed to sink theirs just after leaving port. ------------- Jp Indoe Contender 518 Buzz591 Chew Valley Sailing club Bristol |

tbh alex i dont think there could be much of a performance gain from putting the rudder down or moving the rig about, not with that hull anyway. ------------- 600 732, will call it Sticks and Stones when i get round to it. Also International 14, 1318 |
