A big thank you to all at Instow for a super event and to all competitors that make this such a great do on and off the water.

Looking forward to next year already.

Well done to Paul - but he did look cold!

Just to echo Mark comments, a big thankyou to NDYC for yet another fabulous event, great sailing, fantastic hospitality :D
Congratulations to Paul on a hard fought victory, bi-eck lad you did look cold....... :oops: perhaps you can persuade that Shanklin mob to sail the boat properly in the future... two sails & trapeeze!that way we could have a sport nationals back on IOW :idea:

YaHoo! back next year for more of the same please.

What a truly superb time I had at Instow :D The sailing was brilliant and the hospitality and company were just as we have grown to expect from our Class i.e. second to none!! Thanks NDYC for doing a great job.
Many congratulations to our new champ Paul - a derserved winner who kept a cool head all the way through - was that down to the shorty wetsuit and no hat!
Already looking forward to the chance to revisit Instow

This was my first Nationals and I wasn`t too sure what to expect. What a great bunch of people, so helpful. Even Mark wasn`t to cross after I tried to nudge his boat out of my way, sorry again Mark. I’m looking forward to next year and hope to be able to capitalise on all the great advice. Thanks. Wayne

Thankfully I still managed to sail the three races and only lost the rudder once.. It could have been worse and the transom(s) could have been taken off..

Enjoy the 15, you're at a super club so I'm sure you will. Remember to crack off the main if you want to make a sudden change of direction, if you don't and the boat's powered up - you'll just get roosters out of the rudders and not much else!!

Happy Sailing.
