We were 3rd in the Arrows trophy, Rob, your memory must be going ;D

This boat along with 3262 was built from Andrew Turner's mould. The Pevensey championships were my first in the Twelves and we came 26th overall just behind Patrick Elcombe in 3208, who was next to us in the boat park. We had two races on a windy day and the attached photograph is from the second race that day, exciting reaching!

I am trying to find some more photos and if so will put them on my blog which you can find from my website http://www.artyman.co.uk (http://www.artyman.co.uk)

I've just bought Jenny B from Steve, who sailed at Himley Hall near Dudley. From this summer on, we'll be sailing her in Chichester Harbour. Really looking forward to get out on the water, shall repaint her over next winter, but the name will remain the same.
