3 Years...

Take Flight has been sold to Martin, from Bristol, where she has already been treated to a (much needed) new trolley, and ‘pimped’ dropped wing bars. They look f**king cool too..

Anyway, no-one wants to read a boring tome detailing every story from the last three years, so I’ve condensed it to these handy facts;

Total Mothie miles travelled: 8000

World Championships: 1

European Championships: 1

National Championships: 2

Decent results at the above: 0

Club races: 0 (which may account for the above results..)

Foils Broken: 0

Foils Lost: 1 (Replaced by Shiny Aardvark canting jobbie)

Value of fittings stolen by pikey topper squad kids: £140

Rigs bought: 1 (KA MSL 11)

Wing bars broken: 3

Compression Struts broken: 1

Races thrown due to stupid lack of preparation: Too many to count

Friends made: Too many to count

Lessons learnt: Too many to count

Fun had: Lots!

So I didn’t sail as much as I should have, but travelled to some amazing places, did some amazing sailing, and made friends for life. Take Flight became possibly the most modified Moth in the British fleet (now on her fifth iteration, if you count rig changes). I hope Martin has as good a time with her as I did.

And the reason for this post, well expect a suddenly flurry of bloggage as we go onwards and upwards with GBR3192 (confusingly, a newer boat than 4048..) courtesy of Aardvark Technologies…
