Hi everyone,
Just a few lines to wish everybody in the Dart 15 association a very Merry Christmas and a happy new 2002 sailing year, with special thanks to :-
Bob Carter for his tireless work arranging our open circuit events and generating enthusiasm within the fleet .
Jonathan Perkins for his considerable efforts in providing us with one of the best web-sites in the boating world .
Simon Farthing for producing a superb magazine for all our readers, which is every bit as important as the web-site, to give us all a permanent record of events throughout the years .
Gordon Goldstone for making sure we remain solvent !
Tim Dieu de Bellefontaine - our Secretary who sees to all our insurance needs.
Nick Dewhirst - Our Captain and 'Master Mariner' who ensures our collective 'ship' sails down the straight and narrow .
Last but not least - all Dart 15 sailors who regularly turn out at their clubs, attend open meetings and the Nationals.
Without you , we would not have an association .

Thankyou all for your efforts and have a great new 2 0 0 2

Hi Mick.
What - in this weather ? You can not be serious ! !
Actually I don't get it until 19th Jan., so I might just be able to Christen it at Rutland, if all goes to plan .
Otherwise, it's a case of 'nicking' 1900 back off Matthew, as I'm sure he is even less keen to venture out into the Arctic North at present !
