Found this in an old (no comments from anyone, thanks!) copy of 'Cat and Boardsailor' magazine from 1984 .

I thought it might be a nice read (history for some of us) for winter.

I have a couple of other articles I can scan and put up if anyone would like. There is a good one titled 'The DIY Catamaran. Plus some others on Stingers, Cobra's etc.

I hope the publishers dont mind any more .

Hi all,

I must be getting old, I was surprised to read about battery drills back then. Maybe it was just me that was behind the times.

Sad to read the only race I won that year was abandoned and also sad to think that was 27 years ago
you young blokes should take it easy on me..
