Hi Sam,
I'm looking forward to joining you at Hykeham with Campervan and Sprite Moth.
Barbeque sounds good to me. Likely to come over Friday evening after work.
Doing my best to encourage a couple more moths too.
Cheers
Lyndon

Re: Magnum 8 restoration
Hi Exsailman, welcome aboard, always good to hear of another moth being saved. Hope you can come and join us on (or in) the water soon. There is a lot of moth info amongst these pages, and you might find some more on the Lowrider moths facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/groups/422607964597474/ ...

Re: Enterprise lack of pointing
Usual suspects would be: Mast rake - Is it somewhere near the recommended settings? Check on one of the sailmaker's sites for a tuning guide. Mast foot position is usually fixed on an Ent, but channel type step with pins can be adjusted. Stick with the light to medium wind settings for pond sailing....

Re: Shearwater date change
I am hoping to come to Shearwater this time. Will try and make a weekend of it. Possibly another couple of boats from Greensforge if we're lucky.

Re: Baltic Wharf NEXT SATURDAY
Ian and I were planning to go with our Moths, possibly another moth from my club if maiden voyage tomorrow goes well.
It would be good to have some more joining us though..

Re: Int Moth training day at Greensforge SC
Sorry, but as only a couple of local boats were confirmed ready, we have decided to try and run this later in the season.

Re: Plywood Sealant Tape?
A Womble! brilliant, that was certainly one of the designs i thought would be using a fair bit of fibreglass tape. From the sail number K3683, it would have been built 1977-1978. Was this the Womble that was advertised for sale sometime last year? Pleased it found a good home. You will find plenty o...

Re: Plywood Sealant Tape?
Hi and welcome to the forum, and indeed the classic moth fleet. Great to hear of another one being saved! I think the tape you are looking for is fibreglass tape which is widely available as Steve says. as an example..... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fibreglass-Open-Weave-Woven-Cloth-Tape-For-Polyester...

Re: Last event of the year
Can't trust the weathermen! that has to be the lesson learned from Saturday in Bristol. 10-12 mph wind promised but we had mostly 0. Baltic Wharf SC though, can always be trusted to welcome CVRDA visitors to their unique sailing experience. It was pleasing to see a good turnout of classics both home...

Re: Banbury 8th October
Thanks to all at Banbury SC for another great meeting. A slight lack of water in the pond restricted the playing field, but the Race Officer's depth sounding was spot on with the shallows marked, and I managed to keep clear of the mud all day. With a few unpredictable windshifts thrown in, we had so...

Re: Old Enterprise sail
I've got a small roll of blue sailcloth that I use for patching etc. Its about 2' wide. I might also have some well faded pieces from an old pacer jib if i can find them in the loft. Going to Hunts so i will bring what i find.
