Yes Spud, we are sorry to lose you.

If you are thinking of buying a Hurricane 5.9, we have a member who would like to sell his and buy a Sprint 15! The H 5.9 is a black one with spinnaker kit, and in good condition.

If you are interested, please drop me an e-mail and I'll pass on the owner's contact details.

Yours sincerely,

Andrew Hannah,
TBYC.

Well there are a couple of Dart 15s (Colin Woods' and mine, side by side!) at Whitstable for sale. We've both moved on to Dart 18s, as have most others at WYC. Yes, the shame of it! I've had an *enormous* amount of fun out of my 15 and I'll be sad to see it go.

I'd also like to thankso many people in the association for all great work they've put in keeping the class alive, and for all the help and advice I've had from them. Helen and I still remember Bob coaching us in our first Nationals (as he lapped us - another reason why we bought a boat we could sail together, competitively I hope).
