Re: Number of Dart 15s in the family.

My word what a lot of Dart 15s.... :-)
So it sounds like the Clarkes have 3 Dart 15 sailors in one family with lots of boats. I reckon that puts them ahead of the Price/ Maddison family who had 3 sailors and 3 boats.

Number of Dart 15s in the family.

I observe that there are 3 Clarkes who took part in the Marconi TT. Are they all in the same family and living under 1 roof? If so this equals the 3 that were in the Price/Maddison family in the early 1990s. Does anyone know of others with 3 or more Dart 15s (and sailors) in one family? I discount c...

Re: Windsport at Marconi this weekend

Well done, Mark. It is a good place to win with the challenging tides.
The only places with more challenging tides that are or have been on the Dart 15 circuit are Gurnard and Instow in my opinion.

Well done to our new National Champion

Well done to Jenny Ball. Our first lady National Champion for 34 years. Linda Moss won in 1989 as a 2-up boat with Stuart Snell as crew. Jenny is our first ever single handed Lady Champion - a fantastic achievement, especially as she was the event organiser. It is really tough to organise the event ...

Re: Sad News

Alan was a super guy and it is very sad to hear of his passing. It was as a result of Alan’s enthusiasm that we had the Open Dinghy Club on the Dart 15 traveller circuit and we were proud to have this venue in our programme. It was very amateur and very friendly and completely unlike any venue that ...

Re: Sport Nationals

Well done Liam. Another fine result. Next year you could go for the Grand Slam ( 2 Nationals, Northern, Southern, and Inlands all in the same year). If you win Grafham you will be 80% of the way in 2022.....

Re: How to fix corroded mast

That sounds serious. I would start by using duck tape. At least it will not catch on/ tear the sails like an aluminium plate would. It might give your mast a bit more life. It could give you time to save up for a replacement mast, even if it is second hand one. After all if your mast is the original...
