Most important to thank Geoff for his setting up of the new format and generous hosting of it on his server and also to look back and thank Ian B for his years of providing us the same service. Ian , hope you’re new keeler is giving you all the pleasure you were seeking and you will visit us occasionally. To all those who have contributed to the knowledge base on here thanks. For simple old grp boats they certainly have longevity at whatever stage of decline they are in. Much like myself

From the Ozzie Clan, Merry Christmas or whatever your preferred expression is these days, happy holidays etc. Hope you all get to spend time with families and get a few sails in over the break and enjoy your boats. As I ALLWAYS say in these posts at this time of year, you are safer behind the tiller than the wheel, watch it on the road, they don’t call it silly season for nothing.
Lastly, and don’t quote me here but, I heard our Aldi man has a monogrammed Aldi torch for all of us
