Well its been a proper busy week in the sail loft for cat stuff, following Grafham we always end up with a van load of cat sails etc to sort out and this time it was no exception -
In no particular order -
2 Tiger Mains to repair
1 Tiger Tramp to Repair
1 F16 Tramp to Repair
1 New F16 Tramp to make
1 F18 Edge Tramp to modify and a load of covers board bags etc for Williams new boat
1 full suit of F18 sails to make (these wont get done this week but we have some tweaks to the design to do before laser cutting)
1 Shockwave Spi to Repair
And finally 1 Shockwave Main to fix elbow size hole where the Catguru dived into the main after a particularly heavy pitch pole (yes Baby David you can end for end them but you have to be sending it downwind with the traveller to the stop trying to reach up for a gate your not allowed to go down into and get hit by a huge gust at the same time ! While I'm on the subject of pissing it in a certain sail maker from down south went in twice, once amazingly on Sunday in 3 knots whilst trying to perfect the new style of both crew down to leeward on the run holding hands - how sweet, i think the F18 GAP number plate on his van might be the subject of a caption competition in fact sod it i will start F18 Gay and Proud anyone care to contribute !!! )
All the above is on top of normal boring yottie shite so i best get of the blog and get my arse into gear as i wont have it done by the next event Weston in a couple of weeks !!!
