Hi Sean

Did you manage to get your Dart 15 back on the water again last year? Bad luck you had with that huge gust!

Sent you a useful reply but twitter lost it. Sorry.

I tried this with an RS 300 some time back but didn...

I have one for sale. Maybe he'd like to try it out? I can put him onto my insurance policy.

Tough one, Derek. I was fortunate after my trolley got smashed up at Carnac. Maybe the smashing up helped, but the stub came out easily. I can only suggest whatever combination of the following you can manage: - heat the outer tube and cool the inner one - outer tube in a decent vice, tightened suff...

Thanks for the confirmation, Erling. Good thinking.
