Hi Terry!
Where are you based?
If you are interested in organising something and are not too far from Kent (100-150 miles?) then I would be very happy to help.
I have not got a boat but I followed the continental circuit for 3 years with my brother who had a Microsail, and had the great pleasure of training as a Micro measurer with Phil ;-)
Regards,
Lucy

Not sure that I am.
I have a car. It is too small to tow the boat.
I have a trailer, in a poor state, not fully roadworthy.
I have a boat, some of the buoyancy tanks have large inspection holes in them
I somehow think it sounds like a recipe for trouble compared to having none of the above.

Terry

Need to get better equipped as far as towing is concerned. 1 A new trailer. 2 A new car. (That in itself could take a while.Looks very interesting though and I will definitely be up for it once I get all that sorted.RegardsTerry-----Original Message-----

- meet competitors from France, the Netherlands, Germany, Poland, Ltvia, Russia
- find a second-hand boat, or sails
- have your boat checked for measurement (no exclusion, just warnings !)

get-together at some stage. Perhaps a race or just a cruise to get started.
If anybody is interested we could start discussing on this group about a
good place to meet and somewhere nice to sail to for a day sail or
something.
I can try to arrange something at Greenwich Yacht Club in London or anywhere
else that might be more convenient if others have any preference. I am
hoping this could become an annual event and that others might try to
organise something similar so that we can have a few events every year at
some stage.
If this takes off I might have to look at getting a decent trailer for my
boat and would appreciate suggestions of somebody who can tailor-make a
trailer for me that will be light, adjustable and with brakes at a very
decent price.
What do you guys think. At least we can start talking about it.
RegardsTerry
