Re: My idea of hell...
The secret to a tippy boat is that you need wind to lean against then it is surprisingly pleasent.Never go out unless there is at least 5Mph of wind to support you,Doe`s sound a bit of a bad day.

Re: Iconic dinghies
most dinghy sailors will just glaze over at the idea that some boat somewhere was famous because...(fill in reason), unless it did something truly spectacular.

Re: Personal Handicaps?
I would have thought that's an example where a club should modify PYs into club yardsticks for classes as the guidlines for using the PY's say you should do. Ths solo in question at my club is sailed above the standard of the fleet so Personal Handicaping works for this race series. Altering the PY...

Re: Hunts Meeting
Meanwhile, the old Harrier handicap was 98, which seems pretty generous. The + I'd expect to try off 95 (same as a Hit trial No!), as the Laser (also 95) does have its uses, if only as a bench mark...there, an excuse to allow it to compete! The harrier + seems to be about the laser handicap when I ...
