Impressive. A lot of sail for Jumanji and lil' grumpf. Surely the logo on the sail cannot be a photoshopped heart shape?
Seriously Graeme, have fun, enjoy the sunshine and the wind, don't capsize too often and thrash the rest of them! Just let us us how you're doing from time to time, so we could be dead jealous |

Yep but without the lightwind drag of a flat planing section. It's a B14 without the need for a bagwoman, a five oh without the need for a degree in engineering and zimmer technology, maybe even an I14 without the need for a billiard table to sail it on. |
