Title: N3519
Post by: darebarry on 26 Jul 2008, 05:18
N3519. Had my second visit to see the latest 12 this afternoon. I am sure when it makes its enterance it will be a real talking point. It proves that there is still alot of scope to move forward with our current rules. If it does not make Burton week I will bring some pics.
Off to Cowes Dinghy week starting tomorrow

Come on then. Those in the know please spill the beans!
Those not in the know - lets speculate!
Wing tips on the mast? (that's the best I can do i'm afraid!)

well the mystery boat is no longer a mystery, and it looks fantastic and its certainly radical.

You're not joking,  not only does it look radical but -adjusting a centre board trim tab with the crews footstraps is a fairly radical thing to attempt! not to mention the t-foil rudder and a main sheet traveller adjusted by the helms toestraps. This is going to be a very interesting boat!

No Philip, you cannot have the latest edition.  P&B have them in store and could no doubt post one to you.  Sorry your trip has been wasted...

Don't worry Phil you wern't the only one. I also went out and bought the August issue thinking that must be the latest being the 4th August and all but it isnt in there.
So we must be talking about the September issue?

Tha article about Joe's new 12 is in the SEPTEMBER issue of DSM, being the 5th August this makes perfect sense.........!:-/

So I'm going to have to shell out for DSM again. At least there will actually be something in it worth reading this time...

Well, I bought Dinghy Sailing Pamphlet this morning, and dang if that isn't a humdinger of a boat. Can't wait to see it tricked out, rigged up and sailing!
