roofer, you can run 2.5 in our offshore 200 series,it has been decided that your power setup would be eligable in production open class, competing with any boat that does not fit in 200 class. and some of us would like to compete in your races .that should throw down the gauntlet.

Roofer, any idea how long the course is? And what safety gear do you have for racing? Just an idea on whats needed.
Would my boat be eligible for the class? 17' 9" @ 280kg
I'd love to do a race in my boat, are there any single races or weekend events outside the season points?
Thanks

hydro ive no idea how long course is but races last for 20 minutes.safety gear is race lifejacket,orange helmet,fire extinguisher,twin kill cords,battery isolator and maybe anchor and rope. you can enter a single race if you want,day licence available at £50 .your boat would be ideal at around 18 foot .

Agreed! A few years back, a class got invented called 'Historic class', aimed at all the old class 1 and class 2 Mono's that must be lying around.
it never really got anywhere back then, but I never understood why.
A 'basic' type 'run wot ya brung' for these type of boats would be excellent.
PS.
Tony, could you PM me Clair's address, I have this copy of Searace here for her.

Is it because a class I boat requires mega bucks to run and maintain, and if you've got mega bucks, you're gonna want something a bit newer.

Not really, the only team that actually turned out for it was Tony 'mad dog' Hamilton with his Lamborgini/Bertram 38, and that ended up in GT class, Peter Clarke's Bertram 38 'Ocean Thunder' was also gonna run, but never saw the water.
