Hi Ben,
Yeah, the twelve has been a long time in 'persuasion' ;) Our former commodore has said - ever since I joined MPSC as a beginner some 3yrs ago that a twelve would be ideal on our water.
3 lakes, all interlinked, with the biggest being the 'racing lake'. It's a beautiful setting too. Out in the countryside, lots of wildlife and a river to cross for access to the big lake....I love it.
Only had this boat for a couple of weeks - I swapped a Dart 15 for it - so still learning (especially rear sheeting!)
I race a Lightning368 on the traveller circuit too, not sure I'll get to any twelve events - but you never know! :)

Cheers
Lee

Hi all,
I've just become the new owner of N3124 - a Chain Lightning design that appears to be the only one?
Anyway, I'm totally new to the 12 and it's already something of a learning curve!
The boat has been re-named 'No half measures' and has been beautifully refurbed with a spectacular paint job 8)
I sail at Manor Park SC in Staffordshire, near Lichfield.
If I get this right, here's a couple of pictures.....
