The Moth fleet at St George continues to grow. There have been new boats in each of the last three weeks and there are a couple more coming before Christmas. We will start 2008 with 10 quality foilers plus a few low riders and even some scows.

I have some catching up to do. While I have been sailing the Canoe in preparation for the IC worlds, the younsters have been practicing hard.

I have almost completed thenew main foil and might give it a try next Saturday. Its club Champsionship, high tide and hopefully a good foiling breeze.

I need to spend some serious time on my moth sailing, some equipment updates and tuning. There is really no reason the old Tiger can not be as good as the newer boats.

less bog mostly, same carbon layup, but a good piece of Tassie Oak as a spar as recommended by John some time ago.
Mostly just being more carefull with resin and assembly.
