This is the most inactive I have ever seen this forum, so is nobody actually doing any worthwhile multi sailing at all. Or is everyone out doing, leaving me the only unfortunate sitting at a computer pretending to work on this fine Friday morning? Yours extremely boredly redhotchilicat ------------- go on you know it makes sense |

So far my Dart season has been rubbish, as I've missed most of the circuit. Stokes Bay was the next one, but now work have me on nights.

some employers (and tool delivery companies) just don't understand that they are indeed the scourge of the sailing classes!!!! Next event for me is Rutland cat open hoping not to need any tools and will not be returning early for work..............now I've jinxed myself ........ D'OH ------------- go on you know it makes sense |

Been busy working for a flippin' livin' Off doing a bit of Tornado driving on Sunday; then to Rutland on the F16 with new engine. Then the ECPR on (probably) the T. Then maybe some big cat yotting later in the year.

MAY!!! Maybe every race was abandoned due to either too little or too much wind. Last weekend saw the first races since returning from Carnac and the conditions were A1. ------------- MP*MULTIHULLS The UK F16 Dealer http://www.mp-multihulls.co.uk |

| Just got back from Texel this week, it was great fun, except for the general lack of wind, still, it was race able. |

Almost no wind at Weston today; went out for an hour or so and did not get a hull out of the water - not great practice for the ECPR but ho hum.... ------------- Wanna learn to Ski - PM me.. |

Sounds like perfect practice, every time I have done the ECPR we have drifted for at least 1hr of the race  |

ECPR !!!!!
Go on you know you want to.
My sailing is rubbish at the moment. Sailed the T at Stokes for a bit but couldn't be bothered with the Sunday. Got a real can't be asked attitude at the moment. May take it up to Rutland for the end of the month and then the ECPR but just want some confirmation there will be other T's to race against. Can't even be bothered to splash about in our laser my sailing Mjo has left me that much |
