Lovely looking Firefly:- http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... eName=WDVW

(The Tideway reached £1020.00)

There are two small rubber bungs in the bottom of the transom of my Albacore, both were getting rather old then my son lost one. New ones were all to large then I found silicone stoppers from Altec. About £3.00 for a bag of 10 and in lots of sizes. They can be ordered via the website on http://www....

It looks quite tempting, but I think you guys have put me off clinker!

I have emailed the organiser as requested. Also, Dell Quay Sailing Club will be hosting an historic festival at the picturesque port of Dell Quay which is situated in the Chichester Harbour. This event will celebrate the working sail heritage of this historic port and will take place from 8/10 July ...

I put a comment on the forum about a Bewl Water event in July. Ian Duffill is the organiser and is keen to maximise attendance and this first event. I have sailed at Bewl Water and it is very nice, pretty large. He can be reached at flint.house@rya-online.net

Take a look at http://www.angelfire.com/de2/WIT/ruddersetup.html

Having put Alb 999 back together there is a bit missing. The rotating mast goes in a gate, enclosed by a tufnol piece which sits between the mast and the gate, this piece of tufnol has two halves and one half is lost.

Any ideas where I might buy one?

I have seen a poster for a "Classic and wooden Dinghy Event" at Bewl Water 31/7. Start from 09.30, relaxed racing at 14.30.

I have a couple of rudders at home - let me know your email add and I will send photos.

Thank you, had a look at the website and have now emailed them for details, costs etc.

I have been looking for a used trailer or combi for my Albacore (999) for some time but nothing has come up. So, I am going to treat it to a new one, any ideas as to best buy/value?

Aluminium has risen to a very high price and now sailing clubs are reporting that thieves are breaking into club compounds and removing spars.

J9 is now safely in Kent, looking fantastic. Many thanks.

There is another for sale as well - twice the price though:-

My GP14 has now been sold on ebay, for more than the starting price but less than I had hoped.
