Hope the link works, I haven't been on here for a long time, but basically I have now built myself a west Mersea Duck Punt, no daggerboard, no rudder, sails in 4" of water, great fun!

Sunday not so good, yes I won two races but that's because no one else turned up in my class, we're between our own Horning regatta and Barton regatta and I suspect people have used all their brownie points in getting permission to go to sail.
The third race I did have a competitor to play with. But got a big gust of wind right on the start line and broached into the start line outer mark. By the time I'd gone round the rest of the race was just playing catch up.

Oh our regatta, went remarkably well for Blue Moon.
