He needs less weight in the boat, I'd just be ballast.
I have declined any active involvement in the CTC or CPC on another thread
I would like to run again - call 0800-bankloan for details

Marty's been at the drugs again. All them years of alcohol abuse has certainly taken its toll on your brain mate.

If you need any pointers from one who hasn't raced in 25 years give me a call

How would you feel if we all gave you grief? And I hate to tell you trim tabs DO help improve speed
Share your experiences not poor cold water on Pash.................would of thought you had enough of that in the Firth !
1: Humour is the spice of life

2: Didn't get a boat built to run on 1 engine

3: Tell me more about trim tabs

4: You have to experience experience,too many people just talk about it.

5: If the tide and wind was in the right direction in the Firth we would of drifted over the finishing line

It must be the side effects of the new Ulcer tablets Combined with Stress Induced Chablis Consumption Thanks Dr. K just wana be a grown up hero like you

Seriously though Chaps if I'd have known a simple question would have raised old animosities, bitterness and acrinomy between our peacefull, harmonious, unbiased and even-handed community I would not have asked it !

A simple
1) Orange Crash Hat,
2) 500 man life raft
3) full immersion suit with self inflating expensive life jacket made in New Zealand
4) John Fullers "Old" RB08 boat
5) Intestinal Servitude available from all the W's .IGOTSOMEBOTTLE.Com/Revenger/Kerry/whathappenswhencoastguardsgowild[/url]

that would have surficed........

So gang lets all take some Sincerity Pills, put our toys back in our Prams and get on with the task in hand of taking the Piss Out Of Each Other .... OK?

Its just the sport is rapidly decreasing and and there's no need for some of the comments and negative vibes posted on here from persons not on the racing circuit. If it dies wot are you all going to post about! Any way like said earlier plenty of help offered to any one who needs advice on racing and if i dont know there's plenty of others on bm who support the racing and can help!
