James - I've got a Design 8 (3271) and have had two great years sailing with my son and daughter (7 & 9 now).  Weight wise I'm 88kg and weight works perfectly with both until gets windy and we don't tend to sailm then anyway.  Did the Nationals, Salcombe and number of opens with daughter this year and great & extremely friendly class plus 4/5 family teams competing with similar age kids.  Similar position as wanted to start sailing with kids (as I did with my Father) and nothing interesting apart from a 12 caught my eye.  They're a great balance for competent helm (lot's to play with) whilst kids gain confidence.   Believe there are a couple of FRP Design 8's currently for sale (3291 & 3294).

Indecision now entered

Lillywhites will be coming along

Doing Salcombe week for the first time in a couple of weeks and hints/tips on everything Salcombe related gratefully received.

Tom - bringing Indecision down for the week and have a spare set that you can borrow for the week.  Jib good, main average but missing top batten.
Would be good to have another AC boat to sail with too.

Paul - yes if Indecision would qualifies?  Baaed on Burton Week performance not sure we'd qualify as a performance risk
