Not in a N12 this year but NWNW was tops. Great sailing all week. Goods to see so many 12s there - looked good racing.

Already looking forward to next year.

I'll take that as the SI's for Hunstatnton - nice and simple.

Last year was my 1st and a great time (missed Hunstanton though!).

Even at the back in a N12 last year it was fun. We'll be easy to spot this year in the pink Lark - just look behind you!

I might try an cadge a go in a DB N12 at NWNW with my son - they looked absolutely sensational at RHYC - what an advert for the class! - the acceleration in puffy conditions is awesome (as you young people say) - and upwind - point or what!

If only I was lighter and richer..............

Yes but not in a N12 - so a more relaxing Monday for me!

 A pint and bacon butty in Wells SC at 10:30am having finished your sailing for the day - magic!

well said.

I'm looking forward to NWNW this year - but unless I can muster another 12 will be in the Lark with various crews, (wife and son).

We already have our convenient base at err........... Sea Palling (there for two weeks) so some camping will be in order.

Sold to George at Weirwood SC  - a nice bit of water and with less weight in it will go like a rocket.

Missing it already.

Interesting I had call from a guy tonight who said he had tried to email me about the boat via the website and it had not got through .This had happened to him and another boat he had been after.

Can it be checked if all is OK for the email links from the For Sale on the website?

QuoteIf the 12 is to still be here in another 70 years depends on it's ability to continue to develop and improve.

Seems to me that there has been little significant development for the last 10 years and as such the current 12 is now locked in time just as much as any manufactures class.

As the dominant design is now 12 years old either it's near the perfect for the rule or no-one has any abitite for designing a new hull.


Good point well made.

With lots of money at stake in a new pro build boat - the safest route has to be  follow and tweak.
