Hey pip, can give you a lift if its needed as i should be coming down from Cardiff if the mast is fixed! I'm still unsure of accommodation as well. So if anyone has floorspace or a shed that would be fantastic?

Thats why you were master yoda in the fitting out of puppets and chunky

Hey James,

Might be interested....tried to call you tonight but it said your phone was off!

Hey john, as like last year i'm okay to help both days!

I AGREE with John, Emma, James. When i first got into sailing 12's 6 years ish ago it comprised mainly of club sailing at Saltash with 5-6 boats. It was great when 4-5 of us packed up the boats and headed to a LOCAL open meeting. Yes when we got there, quite often there were only couple of other boats that turned up, so it wasn't a publicity event. But why does that matter? People locally seeing 12's actively sailing in the area is more likely to get them into the class than reading an article in Y&Y. I didn't start sailing the 12 because of Y&Y it was because i saw the likes of John, Gill, Kath and Tim sailing them. In fact is still don't read it now.

So lets put this next season behind us (shame as it hasn't started) and start a fresh the year after and have a proper South West Series. If we want to race against the rest of the country leave it to the Gill Series, Nationals or travel to their events!

Also an afterthought and I'm not saying Kean hasn't done a good job. But can we not have someone down this way to organise it? I know i would like to be involved but don't have the experience as of yet....maybe in need of shadowing "Yoda" a.k.a John Murrell.

well done muddles, i think you've hit the nail on the head there!! Remember him hurting his back...cough cough

Try Tom Jefferies....... as  hes away at the min

Erm has James damaged his back turning over again..cough cough, is that why your thinking of boat names?

How about John Murrell, thats a pudding. Not linked to a new boat though as he's getting quite old!

Thanks that was handy
