light at the end of the cave

Renovating a cellar is a lot of work but I have got far enough to start gluing together foam to make a male mould for the Batmobile.



I can now also get Lord Flashheart ready to fly. I have fixed the boat cover with our new (surprisingly complicated for a basic robust model...) sewing machine and have just one laminating repair job to do and she will ready for chocks away. It is great to see the Mothapalooza prize which will hopefully help get some diversity back into the fleet. Send me your worlds entry for my list here.

Cycle campaigning is in fashion with the Times Campaign reaching Italy and now Austria!

This is probably my most positive optimistic post ever. So I will keep it short and promise that normal service will be resumed soon.

Fun Worlds entry list

Spring is just around the corner in Europe so it is time to start thinking about summer. If you are coming to the worlds let me know, so I can add you to my list:

To make my life easy please resister with the IMCA site if you have not done so. You can also add your boat here: http://www.moth-sailing.org/imca/faces/AddNewBoat.jsp. Then send me a picture and a quick mail to doug at culnane do net and I will do the rest.

This is not an official entry list but it is a list of people that are planning to come and their gear. This data feeds a database of boats which (like the Boats for sale feature) attempts to keep track of what boat are out there...
