Your website perhaps is not the finished version? Try looking at in Firefox?

I do use Firefox (on a Mac) and it is working as I expect it to!?!

Can you point me to where you think it's in error?

Cheers,
Carl.

I think it was more a demonstration race than a series race but I could be wrong! Only 5 turned up!

Carl.

you would have known if it was a race there would have been about 36 boats there, so i am almost certain it would have been a demonstration

Absolutely right, this was a demonstration, a few of us got together and went to Chasewater, there was only meant to be 5 boats there, it was organised by one of the teams who test at chasewater now and again.

A good shakedown to check the boats out after most have been in bits through the winter (well mine has!) - celebrating Chasewater's 50th Anniversary, and all in the aid of charity for the Air Ambulance.

Also powerboat racing has been absent from there for some years, so a little viability check for the future maybe for a weekend challenge series with heats? who knows, but it was really good fun and a trip down memory lane for me, cause I learn't to sail on that lake 30 years ago!

I've now decided powerboat racing is a relatively "safe" sport after watching the nutters on the wakeboards!

I think an F1 Osprey Rescue diver and excellent powerboat photographer probably knew that already. How goes it Carl??

IT and Office Manager I'll have you know!

I'm not a web designer so I just use IFP3 to host and control my web site, all I need to do is upload photos at 500 pixels, 72 ppi, organise the menus and jobs done!

It's harder to rob photos than my own web server as it's all flash based, although it's still possible, they won't be good quality!!!!

Am at Barrow on Saturday but as a diver, might do a spot of photography though

Carl.

Wotcha,

No, can't make Poland due to coming back from Russia (or being in Russia) and the weekend of the 21/22, Chris Davies wants me to do the photos for the O350 at Stewartby.

F2 race eh? Alunksne eh? Hmmm......

Annese sends her love!!!!!

The 350 Worlds!!! All you'll get is pics of boats being paddled or towed!!
Should be a good weekends racing. Shame we won't be there as there is a strong rumour that young Goodman may be making an appearance with his 250 just to put the cat amongst the pigeons.
Are you at Carr Mill next weekend for Round 2 of the British Championship?
