I to have posted the entry form today. We will splash around at the back in the Crusader and let all the serious people play with their Kittens and wings.

You wouldn't go far wrong with 3398. bullet proof Design 8 and still very quick. Also below your budget

3470 is gone to a guy called Terry Curtis, currently at the OK dinghy worlds. I think I can safely say it will probably be a bit further up the fleet now than when I was sailing her!
I am now in team "Crusader" with 3236 White Knight!
Plaster off tomorrow, hurrah

Sold to Terry Curtis 26th January 2010

With the departure of 'Fat Boy' it seems I am the new owner of White Night! Back in a Ledger Crusader at Up River YC, though I might have trouble getting it out of Matt's hands
Lets see what she looks like in the daylight.

Who's this hiding behind his crew in case anyone had a camera?

You are right Kevin they did put me in the geriatric ward! Must look older than I think!
Thanks for all the best wishes. been glossing skirting boards today.....can life get any worse!

So you can all see my big swelling

beside internet, cool. deed is done still high on drugs so no pain yet. good stuff morphene

Am feeling decidely depressed at present. Whilst sailing the Icebreaker on sunday fell over (again) whilst tacking and bent my Thumb back, ouch. Finished the race as you do and suffered in silence. Monday thumb was swollen so a trip to casualty showed a break. Not just any simple break, the section of bone the ligaments had attached to had pulled away and lodged in the joint.
Attended Fracture clinic today and a going straight into surgery tomorrow morning to have the two bits srewed back together. Very impressive NHS but not nice.
Even worse consultant suggested it would be at least 4 months before i should consider sailing again. Too many ropes to pull and risk of permanent damage. So it looks like the Burton Week entry may be on hold.
Now you know why the boat is up for sale. I need something a bit less dangerous. Vintage maybe......

Got mine and definately think March is the best photo........

Sorry Tim haven't got a rib, but would like to know which Sailing club we are at for the Nationals, Weymouth SC or Weymouth & Portland Sailing Acadamy, assuming it's not Castle Cove SC?
Simon

Just a thought if you are going to change the centreboard case. assuming you have a metal centreboard, it may be the ideal time to widden the slot and go with a wooden one. 

Matt and I will be there in 'Fat Boy', then I'm sacking him for growing too quickly..

Which on eis this? Is this 2075 (on the sails) which is not listed as a National 12? Or is there another?
