David Henshall informs me that Mike died on 28 December. Mike won the Burton and week points trophy in 1949 sailing N504 Wanton, one of the Holt 500's. I had the pleasure of meeting Mike at the Wraysbury Holt Centenary regatta and sailing Wanton. Pictures on Data Base. Mike was involved in various trials for Olympic dinghy design selection.

General National 12 chat / Main halyard
27 Feb 2005, 04:02
At present on my Crusader I have wire main halyard with loop & rope tail to go onto rack at base of mast. The wire strands tends to break where it goes over rack. Am considering changing to total rope halyard to cleat on mast. Any comments please - experience - suggestions as to most suitable rope would be appreciated.
