Jim No point in you wishing for a three sail reach, your boat is never afloat long enough to enjoy it !. Hope the tool kit was useful. Actually, we had 20+ boats entered, plus the beautiful '12' that Frensham was given, and which saw it's first time afloat on Sunday. Hopefully it's owner, having epo...

Chris, No problem. I have to be there so Garry can drop his boat off. However the time is uncertain right now. If you call me - 01252 311982 - or mob: 07816 834072 say about 1 hour before you intend to drop it off, I can arrange to meet you there. But I don't want to be there after about 8pm. Regard...

Must have missed it - where does it say no trapezes. If I promise not to use the trapeze, can I bring my I.14 ?

Thames Young Mariners, where I did my Senior Instructor course, is not so much a river club as an aneurysm (if that's how you spell it), being fed from the Thames. It is 10 acres in total, and sails assymetrics !

Your helm will be Johnnie Hay, the younger brother of the delightful Natalie, known to one or two CVRDA'ers. You so enthused Andy last year that he has acquired a classic Cadet, and is 'doing it up' for the event.

Help please, chaps and chapesses. Frensham Pond SC have just been given an old National 12, and it's in quite the most exceptional condition. Good that is, not bad ! It's number 2173, but we don't know anything about it, despite the fact that FPSC was at one time probably the leading National 12 Clu...
