Hi & thanks for the welcome.

We sail from Jebel Ali Sailing Club. Currently 3 spitfires, 2 shadows, 5 F18's (cirrus, tiger & nacra), Topcat K1's, H16's & a Tornado. Peter E owns one of the Spitfires.

Plan to sail 2up with the wife, at 64kg, just too light on my own, but will give it a go. Even 2up, we'll be light at 109kg. Originating from Oz, as long as my wife can hang in there, I'm not phased with the strong winds.

In Dubai, summers almost at an end (summer=45degC, not many people get out on the water in summer) and the racing will be starting up over the next few weeks.
