That's very cool Simon - looking forward to seeing it in the flesh. We should try and get a decent F16 turn-out on at least one of the winter warm-up weekends at Datchet (10th/11th Feb or 17th/18th Feb). Can we tempt you?

I'm impressed that you've got the control lines tidied and sorted before the boat's even hit the water. I've had the Blade 8 months and have only just sorted out the mast rotation - have made the line continuous, and so far it's working well...

I'll be interested in how the downhaul tidying works - how much elastic have you got under the tramp? In the past I've doubles the downhaul round a block so that 1" of elastic pulls 2" of rope.
