3rd one is Swordfish...a B18 with a shark's mouth on it. I'm driving SP for this one, should be good, but we need some practice on the salty stuff! Any idea on numbers? ------------- RS700 GBR922 "Wirespeed" Fireball GBR14474 "Eleven Parsecs" Enterprise GBR21970 Bavaria 32 GBR4755L "Adastra" |

Iain... got your 'Spare Air'? Carnac can be lumpy and fun leaving the beach. Respect is due though Iain, it doesn't seem that long ago I was giving you advice on your first experiments with a Cherub. Now you could whip my arse good and proper!
