All booked in and looking forward to stretching my legs on the sea, not that I didn't stretch them at Chew !!
Hopefully by the time we get there we might have 25 plus Phantoms ? ;D

Hi Simon
Sorry still down to one salary at home so no travelling away for weekends.
Fingers crossed for Wendy's job hunt looking very hopeful for one at present.
I know pushing my luck but hope to see you all at Lee.
I may go for the day trip to the Glyn Charles pursuit.

Regards
Gordon

Hi ALL
Well i see the west country is behind the times with a very generous 2 year old handicap of 1035.
Andy W is obviously fast but cannot cope with a hangover! unlike last year when he got quicker.

Hope to see you all at Lee where Andy was the winner last year.

Hi Gordon

I had not picked up on that. Looking back I thought we were doing surprisingly well against boats that were wiring for most of the time.  Maybe it was locally adjusted? ::)

Hi Simon
we seem to be the only class left on the standard PY for this weekend, not sure if that works in our favour or not as slower boats seem to be adjusted slower and quick boats quicker.
Will be interesting to see.
I know the harbour has its back eddies and shadows etc to confuse us.
Still looking at going despite the rain.

Gordon

Yep and me. I came a stunning 99th last year in the K1.  Didnt sail that badly just did not get adjusted.
Seems you need to sail an H.I.S.C frinedly class.  Preferably beginning with RS and ending in a 0!

Still great fun to sail though and if there are good reaches we are able to use them as well as anyone.  Look forward to seeing you there.
