Charter for Nationals
Posted: Wed May 27, 2015 10:16 am
Hi All
I am looking at any possibility to sail at this years Musto Nationals and any other open events with a borrowed/chartered boat. If at all possible I am very keen.
Some background
I'm an Australian from Sydney who grew up racing Cherubs, 14s for a year and then 8 years in 18s in the 90's. Since that time I have found myself involved/livelihood designing and racing radio yachts and now based with my UK wife on the Wirral. Tried racing a Solo for a year at West Kirby and while a welcoming friendly group of guys, i'm too young to retire to them just yet as assymetrical spinnakers, trapezes and racks were invented for good reason:) .....
I managed to borrow Kit Sten's Musto to do the Birkett in 2013 and loved it. Finished somewhere in the 20-30s I think but Sten may verify that, but thoroughly enjoyed the boat and racing.
Anyway's, keen on a Musto and finally sorting finances and time to do it. If you can assist It would be appreciated.
Cheers
