Hi TT how are you?
It's all a bit serious isn't it. Started to lose the will to live reading that thread. The solution is an easy one though. All the people involved in dinghy sailing who take themselves so seriously need to take their heads out of their arse and lighten up a bit. This will make sailing more appealing to a new market than any particular type of boat. There are a couple of reasons why I stopped sailing. I've mentioned one of them in this post. |

Just sail something silly and ignore everyone and everything else. Simple.

Wonderful wisdom once again, many thanks. I am well thank you. Wife, two kids and new home in Spain (although work still drags back to the grey misery of the UK Monday to Thursday). I'm in the process of buying another boat, but waiting for the autumn before making the final arrangements. And yourself? Still skating and causing Daisy great social pain and embarrassment?
