Dart 18 News

Post by Bob Carter »

Has anyone noticed how slow the Dart 18 site is on reporting the news?
I have yet to see a race report or full chart of results on their Europeans. It is not on their web site nor on the Y&Y web site yet it finished more than 10 days ago. Am I looking in the wrong places? :?

Is it just me or does anyone else think that Bob is launching a charm offensive here?

This was discussed at the 18 AGM last Friday and changes are afoot. Our website and FB pages were commented on favourably. It looks like both fleets will be starting to promote themselves and catamaran sailing which to my mind is great news.

Before anyone else states the obvious it was moderate winds and a nasty chop at the Nationals so only flyweight Teams could trapeze. I suspect a strong correlation exists between boat weight and results. Or is this just sour grapes???
