Sorry to further the pedantic comments but this has to be said.

Nigelf,
As far as i can see there is no mention of water in the new Rules in practice book, but as im sure you are very aware being an experienced race officer, that you would never follow this book to the letter, as it is only an interpretation of the rules.
From your many talks you have done, I am sure you will of used the "official" rule book, as opposed to an interpretation of them. 
In the "official" rules book, the water rule is gone and it is room now.

theres my rant over anyhow

me and a very good u21 helm are looking to do the inlands and combined youth event at northampton!

if anyone would be so kind as to lend me a boat again that would be brilliant!

ideally a db, but a fast ac would be great too!

it will be looked after and returned to you in the same condition and il even throw in a few beers


cheers

ebay is always a good place for cheap boat bits, might be worth looking at boat jumbles for second hand ones, or local sailing club near bonfire night

andy try pebble bank campsite, they had a few places left when i booked ours last week, if not we might be able to fit you in our tent

dont bother with sailcloth, it wont do as good of a job as mylar does.

just stick it on properly with the right adhesive this time


you should be able to get something called trade grip, a 2 part very stickey glue from your local jewsons / trade supplier

and to prep, key it with 80 grit sandpaper!! then loads of acetone.

apply a fair bit of glue but not too much, and wait till its no longer stickey.

oh and for getting that S**ty sikaflex of, just use a bit of heat first and it should peel of niceley

is anyone else finding it a pain to find anywhere to stay near the club?

nearest campsite being over 3 miles away.

houses being very expensive as they will only rent for a week.
