Sail measuring
« on: July 19, 2010, 08:34:29 PM »
Hello
Would it be possible to get a sail measured at the Nationals.
I'll be there as soon as I can escape work on Thursday!
There will of course be beer in it!

Cheers
Nick

I can't wait to see the willing measurer try to drink it either..

Nick I might have some training by late evening, or of course we could use your sail as a willing volunteer for the training???????

Cheers, perfect!
Will get to the bar & fill the sail with 10 square metres of beer, not sure how many pints that is!

I would volunteer it for the training Nick, either that or we'll have to do it in the garden of the very nice accommodation that you and I are in....providing you sample the apple juice I'm bringing

Titch,
perhaps we could use Nicks for the photo session? Especially showing how a sail doesn't measure?
