Was it a feature on boats with unusual sail plans?

..... that is so hurtful :( . Actually I was in Capricious, not the rather clever Ecume de Mer with the automatic reefing system!
While I think on, are you joining the Scuttlebutt Cruise? If so can I offer you a bed? Probably on the aforementioned automatic reefing Ecume, but if it is as windy as last time then that would be a good thing. :lol:

Akshully, I've already been invited to crew on the very wonderful Amaranthe (I think it was my spinnaker skills the skipper sought) but it doesn't look very likely since I'm supposed to be working that weekend.

..... that you are scared of my spinnaker - whilst my main might be a little on the small side my spinnaker more than makes up for it - it is about a yard too big on the luff. It don't 'arf make it go tho'!!!!!
Can you not tell the Norse Gods that you can not work that weekend?
