Ssssssshhhhhhhhh. We've had our fair quota of Bun fights recently lets not start another. I'm hoping to check out my mainsail this Sunday as the previous race was called off due to 30+mph winds. I was also at a function in the Bristol Channel Yacht Club at the time getting very merry on Champagne. If the mainsail isn't as fast as I hope it'll be all your fault as in a previous post you mentioned I was over powered (which I was). I have also ordered a new custom made F16 Spinnaker from Grant Piggott and it will be ready prior to Carnac. The Luff is longer than my present Landy and it will also be a flatter cut than say a T or F18 it will be fairly similar to a Spitfire Spi.
As for making an impression at Carnac that will really depend on the conditions in my case. I reckon I could give most Club F18, Tornado sailors a run for their money when the wind is around 12mph i.e, I'm full out on the trap and their still sitting in. Any more and I hope the alterations to the mainsail will help my progress.
I'm not going to comment about pissing other sailors off!! I have my personal views on that topic and at present they will remain personal. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
Don't forget to look at the F18 website, all the Mumbles events are posted on the Calendar so make sure you turn up as revenge is sweet <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
