Can I get an idea of the number of people going?
I have a plan of doing a bit of a social on Saturday night in Bristol if anyone is interested.
I have looked at hotels and they are around 150 per room.
I'll send links to possible bars/clubs when I have a better idea of numbers.

Could I have an idea of numbers wanting a local curry (I need to let the restaurant know).

I'll be there with ducks. Aim to get new mast set up and general fillering here and there. Since you offered Jamie a coat of durepox would be most welcomed on my mast please!

Keen for social, there's a pretty big dub band playing a concert at the 02 Acadamy... I'd be more than thrilled to go there for a birthday boogie!!

Yes we can durepox the mast. I don’t have any so you need to bring or source some.

Where's everyone staying? Do we need to find an AirBnB or similar??

Yes, sorry our house is very small and in a bit of a state so Mrs C isn’t keen. The workshop gets very cold overnight and there are insurance implications if anything happens whilst people are staying. There are a couple of premier inns close by as another option.

I’m hoping to get my 97 rules boat to the Nationals this year, 2659, I too haven’t done much in cherubs since the 90’s, it would be great to get a 97 rules “Vintage” fleet going

I’ll be there to replace the forestay fitting on the bow.

I’ve found a place to stay in Weston S-M for around £45.

Trying to keep costs down,  but happy to drive into Bristol for the social.

Panels added at rear added, one side rolled perfectly, one cracked and needed faring and carbon adding on top… more carbon to be added to reinforce hopefully pro grip will hide many sins!! Rear kickbars mocked up but yet to be installed they were a touch small but will easily be able to add extra material to bring them up to height with the foreward sections

Glad your having fun. I have Monkey for club fun and a faster one for the events.
We would love to see you at events.
I sail monkey with either my wife or 12 yearold son. They really are fun boats.
