Sorry, phone playing up tonight. Total 4 mains, 2 jibs and 1 kite. I'll try and post pics off computer tomorrow. If Will has something similar it might be easier to collect from him than up here!

Yes that would be great thanks. Wow that cuts the amount of work to make some in half!
Will anyone be at any events coming up which I can pick the bits up?

We have one or two mains/jibs. Icterus (similar boat to yours) has died, but the spars/sails/foils may have been preserved.

If the sails have been spared, my boat could always do with spares so name your price! Then I'll just work out how to collect them, unless you're going to an event?

So boat arrived today with 1 aluminium mast and a bag of bungs.
The mast is rigged for single wire so I'm presuming 91 rules which is what we were thinking of rigging the boat as. Are any of the available sails for 91 rules lying around? Any booms lying around? And finally, we are going to convert to asymmetric kite so any parts for that would be greatly appreciated. Happy to pay for the bits and pieces we're looking for to get the boat to nationals.

OK. All the sails you need, plus a boom are available for you.

You might do the class a favour and collect all the bits and bobs which people are offering for free and happy to pass on, and become the person to whom people can go for older kit.

Who is that lad in Plymouth? He offered to come and get them which is fine.

I will happily take that role so if anyone wants to get rid of any old cherub kit, I'll hold it and distribute if anyone is ever looking.
And Andy offered and I would like to take him up on that to get the boat sailing soon.

I'll be in Plymouth then anyway so it's easy enough to just pop by

I've actually passed the cherub on now as my new boat needs my 100% attention bit I'll happily pass on the board etc. Too. I won't actually be at the sticky weekend, but if you could pass them onto someone who'll be staying at my house (I don't know yet) then that would be great. Thanks.
