Atum is 100% in. I am only 90% at this stage depending on healing of wounds from an incident with a bicycle last weekend. I will find a replacement helm if I am not in a condition to sail by the weekend.

My replacement crew has too much college work and Sam is GCSE'd up to the eyeballs.

Any takers? Given the likely conditions I need someone with a bit of experience...PM me?

Ade and Joe in Sweet Dreamzzz are dropping out. For me it is too much, I have not recovered from draycote yet! and i would be just too knackered, even by Sat afternoon!!! No energy in my tank.
Have a good un... looks like it will be fun.
cheers, from the wimp.

I'm still recovering and I didn't spend as much time in the water as you Ade. Not as young as we used to be

No crew available so I will be putting the brakes on the dayboat trailer, which will release me another weekend for a trip to Draycote/Carsington, Ade. I'll post on the Midlands Posse thread.

Wind guru currently showing 20-28 kts for Saturday.  Could be a perfect Cherub triathlon.

Bimble?! What?! Born Slippy is straining at the leash.

Thanks everyone for a fantastic weekend. Headlines are:
  • It was fairly windy
  • It was very windy at times
  • Clive was very fast
  • Trims remembered just how much fun a 97 rule boat can be
  • For the third open in a row the Cherub class was the most numerate entry (Eight)
  • Beer tastes best when drunk from the keg via 200ml urine sample plastics, with 6 people crammed into a car in a howling rainstrom

A proper report to follow when Hayley stops grinning and her arms recover from today's sends.

Congratulations to Clive and Alex, what a cracking weekends sailing. Thanks to all for a great time my feet have finally dried out now, but the grin is still there from the epic downhill blasts.

New sails on Atum look good Ben

Sorry to have missed a good blast (not sure how much racing I would have done)
