Come on boys charlie and russ there is nothing wrong with the solo if you are on restricted water. A few weeks ago you were both saying how good the racing was especially as you both had them. Well charlie still does.

I know your not having a pop. I do agree to some extent the solo is not the fastest mast exciting boat to sail but for me on a limited budget and small narrow bit of water there is nothing else to sail. I have gone for ash grey cause all of the other colours are a little nasty. I keep looking at 505s thinking ummmmm |

Do they do team Cardigans? Hiking Slippers? I'm really worried about this trend Sounds like I'm going to need to bulk order blue paint. |

Jimbo, Everyone in life is aloud to make a wrong decision! We decided that club fleet sailing was the way forward. It was for at least 3 weeks. I never liked the boat, but the pros outwaythe cons (at the time) Charlie has sailed his for a few weeks before modifying it. By the sounds of it he's had enough! Olly on the other hand has a different agenda! He is buying a new house and therefore can't afford to do any travelling therefore he has to settle with club sailing. Next time he is comatose by drink i will paint him blue and post the photos on facebook. |

Amen to that. And if they persist even discussing chariots of the undead, feathers should be added to the paint whilst still wet of course, music should then be played and 'tail feathers duly shaken' all in the warming glow of Solo embers, I'm even thinking Marsh mellows for the none offenders watching. |

I just wish I had a come back to any of those posts. And what russ said is correct I have bought a new house and so I cant/ not allowed to do anything else. If I had it my way I would prob have a 505 or something that I a little more lively.
