will take the old one - nice one! Will buy you a pint! I guess any crash helemet for a motor bike will do? Also to keep the boat number and save the cost of new stickers should i re-register it with the rya?

you can keep the same nos and because its basic you dont have to register it,and motorbike helmets are fine,just get them painted bright oranage with the boat race number on them,at the top of the helmet so you can read the nos from behind you

I'm no racer so feel free to ignore me but I've heard motorcycle helmets are not suitable for marine use because of the 'bucket effect'. Does this apply to racing or just RIBs?! As a wise person on this forum said not long ago, your head is the most precious part of your body so why risk it? Your choice, of course!

very true but depends on what helmet you go for as in weight shape and the type of visor

I've got a spare helmet and a Lifeline lifejacket (small) although I won't be at Allhallows I will be at all of the Nationals and possibly the Feb Poole (not the brass monkey!) if that helps anyone?

ALLHALLOWS BASIC IS ON! Great news! cant wait to do my first basic and meet up with some fellow nutters!
Not looking forward to coming in last and really hoping for fair weather. However it looks like its finally going to happen - I am going to die!
Reviewing the offers of a loan of lifejackets two required both medium fit or willing to purchase at the right price now that the race is on can anyone confirm attendance at the event and any offers on a loan / sale?
Cheers
