I was reluctant to create another goddamn internet account to view it. I will get to it though.

What are you on about? I made it so anyone with the link can edit. No login required.
What's the story with getting your bottom done.

The link you sent me in an email... it said I had to log in with my google account.

I am overdue for a hauling and now there is a leak through my cutless strut mount. I am going to dock in early spring and give it a total re-fresh including fairing (I doubt that has ever been done). Depending on expense, I am considering soda blasting the bottom. I will also pull the stick, and possibly paint the deck too.

I haven't heard from John. Has he been away?

Try the link above.
And can you let me know what cost your into for that work. I have to do the same. You mentioned a rate to Damian for getting more then one boat.

And I told John to email you.

My Sprit modification is slowing down as my engeneer thinks its not worth it to just go up 1 foot. he wants to go to the tip and he says without major modifications I would snap the mast.

Bummer.

I editted and saved. Seemed to work.

I hadn't done any costing on Soda Blasting yet. I had just mentioned it in my email to John as he had said that there needs to be boat prep for CdM so I was just guessing he needed to do bottom work. Who is Damian?

After thinking about it, there probably wouldn't be much savings in doing two boats as they would still need to tent and clean up after each. Might save on travel costs though.

Since mine will be such a big job, I will probably do it at Race Rocks in West Van so it is close for driving back and forth.

OK where did you put your changes. It see's that you saved it but when I scroll right to Natural High there is nothing there?
you hit the save button on the top right?

I added Natural High to last year's Southern Straits (I was out there too) and I corrected some of your spelling :p

Ahh thanks.
Forgot you were in that blender.

Need you to go back to the page and scroll right till you find your boat and put yourself down for all the races I am doing.
The boats are in order of hull numbers.

Well it has been very quiet here on the western front.
With Xmas come and gone now we are in to the time of year when we start booking the races for 2011. I have been confirmed with Tony for the Van Isle but unfortunately we are not taking our J30's. We have opted for a newer C&C 110 with a sprit. She is fast and comfy but I will still be wondering how I would have done on vampire

So what has every one else got planned for the new year. We need to pick the races we want our one design events at.

I was just coming here to wake you up Don! I never did hear back from John. I'll understand if CdM is full up already.

I'll have another look at the race list today. I'll try to get a crew meeting together for early January.
