I just hope that my friends on this forum, are abiding by the rules, it is

so hard to continue with the rules when you have boats that need dunkin' in

some water to make sure they sit on the waterline, building is the largest part of this hobby, testing is the second part, actually getting the boat on the water & seeing it perform anywhere near what you want, is only the start of "Getting it right", there in lies another few months of getting it as near as perfect as you can, good luck on that one.

Hopefully we will all be sailing as normal before the year is out.

Here's to a 2021 when we can show the Chinese, that British boaters will

(to coin a phrase) CARRY ON REGARDLESS, (RIP Sid James)

Hi Kip

We are lucky in Tasmania, Australia that we have been sailing for two months !!!

Great border controls and Bass strait.

It's the middle of winter, but we are CARRY ON REGARDLESS!!!

So us Tassie guys are holding the flag.

Hope you all get back the sailing soon.

Regards

so Harry, does that mean you have to put your long trousers on and a long sleeved T-shirt ?? 🤔🤔😎

Bushy car park has been open for three weeks now on week days, and this week end they seem to have opened it up for cars AT the week ends so it all week long boating now!!

Hi Ashley

It was 17C on Saturday and 14C Sunday, so still shorts and T-shirt.

Eleven boats in the canal with two older members turning up for the first time this year.

Change the balance point in the Huntsman to get the bow up a bit more.

It's sitting too flat on the water.

I received a new battery today which has a bit more weight to test next Saturday.

4S (15.2 volt) Lipo hard case Nano-tech 5000mah 90C rating.

But Monday and Tuesday big weather front with all the winter stuff.

I ordered a high tide for next Saturday, but miss out on the warm weather order.

Can you spare 8 or 10 C, if only for the morning!!!

Harry
