I'm interested in MPS

Having owned a Hobie 16 for 7 years I'm now looking to change it for something a little more modern. I want a singlehander as I always find it difficult to find a crew. The MPS looks like the answer (seems to be a better bet than the RS700). I'd really like to have a look at one in the flesh as I've never seen one. I'm located near Grafham and Rutland (30 mins from each) and would also like to know which of those 2 clubs is best for the Musto Skiff.
Any help would be great.
Thanks
Richard

Hi Richard, just wondering, do we have to let you know which weekends we are planning on coming down? Hopefully i will be able to get down for 3 of them, if not 2.

Thanks,

Dan

Dan- probably better to direct that question to Sten.

I'm looking to get an MPS asap as soon as I can sell the Hobie, though ideally I'd like to see one in the flesh/sail one first.

Thanks
Rich

... Sten is sometimes also called Richard; although probably only by his mum ...

I'll try and come to Rutland soon and see you all in action. When is a good time? Sundays? Won't be able to come for a couple of weeks.
