I've just spoken to the guy that runs the campsite opposite the sailing club and he will not be open this weekend due to the forecast wet weather.

1899 Stiletto purchased from Barry Lambden who has owned it from new.
Now located at Stewartby in the ownership of Andy Bunyan.

1546 has now left Stewartby and the new owner is Michael Cole at Alton Water

Have you tried Mersea Trailers, they sell catamaran trailers
with the adjustable arms so may be able to help you out.
Does your trailer have a data plate with the manufacturers
name on it?

When it is blowing hard I usually hook my back foot over the rear beam.

Have you tried the number on his website

No problem with leaving boats at Stewartby, the offer is open to everyone just let me know. Unfortunately I can't make Grafham this weekend, so please could you send me a message just before you leave there so I can ensure somebody is at the club to let you in.

Thanks
Andy

Hopefully I'll be able to get down to Plymouth, where are people planning to stay?

Just measured mine, 71.75 inches from centre line of skegs.

I've used https://www.cygnus-sails.com in the past for sail and trampoline repairs, done a good job and fairly priced, they are based in Kettering.

I've towed with the mast attached both ways ( split mast strapped on top of beams rather than beneath though) and didn't notice any appreciable difference in fuel economy. Just down to personal preference really.

I believe Goldfinch has closed down, Companies house is showing it as dissolved in January.

According to the rules you can have a 'Clear window up to 36" long by 12" wide'
New sails don't have windows.

Rule book can be found here

Everybody is welcome to leave their boats at Stewartby , just let me know at Grafham.

Are any Sprint 15 sailors competing in the Round Sheppey race on Saturday?
