The only problem is Ana wants to take them on, now that is fecking dangerous!

I think you are misconstruing the p.m. from kinfast to Marc

the word 'dangerous' was not used in a way for Marc to feel physically threatened. The word was used so that Marc would realise that if he continued to insult kinfast, then kinfast would take steps to make the relevant bodies aware of this.

Had kinfast said " see you 'round the back of the bike-sheds after school " then I would respect your decision to ban him.

That there was no violent intent from the p.m. should be obvious, as both parties spent most of Saturday in close proximity without so much as a harsh word spoken.

I'm glad to see that whilst hiding, he's still keeping an eye on his thread!

That was because I only got the PM on Sunday night! Else there would have been a different outcome Also, he used the third person to describe himself, so how could I know it was him?

Maybe the 'third person' was a splash of Kinfast!

As kinfast seemed to have taken up posting in the daylight hours, his illness is obviously cured, or much worse!


So, is he cured, and able to post whilst sober, or is he just pithed 24 hours a day now?

Anytime is now Kinfast-o-clock

Sunday's breathalyser results can be obtained from the R.Y.A. to answer your question. I was witness to the tests and can state that they were correctly administered. Marex crew both achieved a zero reading. Coincidentally scoring the exactly the same as their brain scan taken before Saturday's race !

Yeah... I saw that...and *another* crew also blew Zero.... I am somewhat suspicious of ...either.... the RYA equipment... or "Sarf Coast" purveyors of alcoholic beverages... watering the stock?

Ana and I are getting neck braces!

Strapping your entire body firmly to a boat, then letting your head with a large and weighty helmet wobble around on a neck thing is designed to cause problems!

looks like Marex was not the only Chaudron 33 to be covered in glory at the weekend :-

How exactly was Marex 'covered in glory'?..you've got one hell of an imagination.

Their performance was embarrassing at best.

If you're intending to take up where Paul left off with the Chaudron thing, you can think again.

I don't think it is embarrassing to win a trophy in those conditions ... f.y.i. only three boats completed a lap. This weekend a Chaudron did well and I applaud them for that. Had you been out there risking your neck and equipment and got a trophy I would publicly congratulate you too. You automatically pooh pooh the success of the Marex team because you have said in the past that they would not stand a chance under racing conditions. You describe the boat they are driving as heavy, shed-like and has lines like a mountain range, well, it's the same boat as the one that just won in Italy. You may wish to criticise, and you may be able to silence those who do not share your views. But have a care that you do not become a Louis 14th figure, with ' boatmad.com ' as your own little monarchy, or one day you too might hear the cry :
