Re: bows

Hi Doug, Haven't sailed the Jarcat for a while. Last time was in Jervis Bay as
the boat is sitting on a block of land just north of Bateman's Bay. The Admiral
has been just too busy to find the time so I just go surfing or diving.
I already have a 5m outrigger canoe that I am planning to add some Harriette
rudders and crossbeams and a more bouyant outrigger. I already have a fair
collection of windsurfer gear.
If you wanted a place to park it and stop it getting lonely, I am sure my son
would love to take my grandson's out on it on Twofold Bay. They only have 3/2mm
wetties for surfing so spray jackets and buoyancy vests would have to kep them
that little bit warmer. There has already been an elementarry out on Twofold
Bay. It looked very nice but I couldn't organise to catch them and scab a ride.
Lots of cinemas in Canberra but a bit light on in Twofold Bay
regards,
Robert
