Made the leap from the Sailing barge 0.5 to 5mph wind speed to the Carve 10 to 20mph wind speed, it put a grin on my face. Fantastic day at Hamworthy, thanks to Keith, Neroli and Ian for all the help and tips with rigging and sailing. It's all going in I'm just finding it a lot to put into practice....

Sticky Boom
Decided to rig one of my new sales last weekend, had a right royal battle getting the boom to extend.
Eventually managed to pull the extension out and have managed to get it moving again.
Should I be leaving the extension out over winter?
Are there any recommended lubricants?

Given some advice on which sails to buy, noted on the back of an envelope. Went to Windy World and forgot the envelope. Not to worry, decided to guess. The 1 reasonable sail that I have which I thought was a 6.5 turned out to be a 5.5. Bought the following: 1 x 6.5m Tush. T4. 1 x 7.5m Tush. T4. 1 x ...

I knew it, Vintage. If there are any curators of wealthy museums tuned into the forum I'm happy to discuss offers, bids from private collectors will also be considered. I have the original mast, boom and 1 sail, unfortunately the neighours dog took a shine to the mast foot and it would now make a fi...

Like the sound of that dro. Sadly my domestic life is strictly Buildings maintenance and grounds, my wife deals with the accounts (if I'm honest everything else really). Have you any idea how difficult it is explaining that Wind Surfers World really is a DIY shop and how usefull the water based tool...

Richard, the sailing barge is a BIC, I'm not sure of the model, definitely a practical classic bordering on vintage. I would like to post a picture of it but can't figure out how. Don't think I'll ever get it to plane without an outboard. I like the 144 Carve mostly based on what people have said, t...
