Re: Blithfield 24th & 25th May
Haha Ian, very funny! Lol, if you had been at Hunts you wouldn't have been in the running, we trounced almost everyone, only losing on the superb handicap the Jb carries.

Re: Hunts 2014
Hi Nessa, yes, a wonderful weekend again and thanks for the extra wind on Sunday.
Thanks also to my two great crew, it was a pleasure to sail with you and get the Jollyboat going properly for a change! Hope we can do it again soon.
Get better soon Nessa and hope to see you at future meetings

Re: Jollyboat mast boom sails rigging etc
Hi Steve, I have a complete rig for a Jollyboat, original Reynolds mast, bendy boom and sails (was hoping to use them on a possible rebuild but still waiting to hear from owner [ed LOL] You should be able to fit them straight into your boat. I do have a steel centre plate that I won't be using again...

Re: Hunts 2014
Hi Nessa, Looking good for Jollyboat 325 at Hunts on the 3rd. Should be at least 2 of us. What do you have planned for the evening? probably up for a meal and drinks.
Also, have I missed the race times or are they on the Hunts SC websire?

Re: Oxalic acid
