Well, I think playing air guitar is about as close as he gets to being a rockstar but there are some excellent shots of Hans Klok single handing the Blade at the GC 2007.

I'm think about something like this.

And lets not forget our UK friends, this must be one of the most spectacular action shots

And now for some US 1-up photo's

basically,

The class (and I) have a huge database of pictures; there are bound to be some that will catch the imagination of would be 1-up F16 sailors.

I'm glad to see Hans trapped out so high. Now I feel better about getting knocked around so much.

Thank you Ed for those very kind words. I had a great time at this event and I am typically a "weekend warrior" and not a 5 dayer. I would do this again! In general, the participants were very friendly and very competitive. Just what I like! We did have some trying times, but we were always having fun when we were racing and that is why we love this sport. Racing catamarans has always been a huge part of our marriage and something we enjoy together and I'm going to do my best to keep that going. Thank you GYC, all our good friends (new and old) and for those that couldn't make it this year - we'll see you the next time.

And next time, I'm bringing my special -brass- spinnaker pole...for the after party!

You guys had better bring lots of $1 bills.

;^)

OMG ... Timbo's a male pole-dancer!!

I'm no rock star, I cannot sing or play !!!

I've a few from the ECPR this year:

I could have gone all day without that!

Terry You Bitch, you said if I danced you wouldn't film it!

Gina, Now it's your turn!

For some reason I can't see your pics Simon; while other pics show just fine

Do others have the same problem ?

Wouter

Tim,
Did you call Terry your bitch?
Terry,
What you think about that?

Well he was the first to rush the stage and put a $20 in my bannana hammock...

;^)

I think Tim meant this definition:
bitch: Anyone who takes pride in pissing you off.

GUILTY!

I gotta' admit ... I chuckle every time I see that animated .gif.

That was some funny sh!t, thanks for the laugh!

No Scooby pics either

Can you see these?

I have said it before and I'll say it again. Those are some good looking sails.

Did you put some negative round (hollow) in the luff of the spi from the tack and up 1.5 meters?

Thanks again; Praise needs to go to Grant Piggot; he built them with my input as to what I wanted them to do. I'll peg out the kite and have a look; but not that I am aware of; I simply said to Grant I want to have a flat Spi I can drive very hard!
