Boat I think would be ready but I'll need a little more time to get the feel again, It's 20 years since my last offshore race & I've put miles on the clock since then.
Torbay is looking the most likley, but sooner would be good if I'm feeling comfortable

About 1 Arseh*le & a Left Knee
I turned my one inside out trying to lift it today on me own.

Seriously - Dunno I'll get it to a weighbridge when rigged & I'll give Lorne a call for the basic weight over the next day or so

If anybody needed an idea of how Steve Salmon stuff holds up. here is a 14 year old shifter that is needing nothing more than a lube & clean.
Cables that go into are shagged though

That's the mark 458. they're now up to mark 989! ..only joking, but they are much sexier now, really sweet bits of kit.

I can't reccomend Steves' work high enough, he's really enthusiastic about making a decent, functional, sweet looking product, beit Controls, Trim gauges, or a custom part.

Have been going through loads of stuff prior to our move and found this pic.

Gosport 98. Might have been the last races for the boat?

Sorry for the poor quality. It was taken from miles away.

The p28 would,nt be the ex Brut?[or faberge] owned by Terry would it? If it was i saw it being re-rigged at his garage last winter...would have thought it needed more horses if it is going racing...
