After 22 years on my much loved H18 I have had my first sail on my new (second hand) Tiger - what a great machine this is.

My daughter and son will be racing up and down the East Coast of Australia, mostly at Palm Beach - on Pittwater - great Summer North East breezes - 15+ knots and flat warm water.

Its just fun to rig it let alone actually sailing it. It must be illegal to have this much fun! :shock:

Dan - maybe I miss-understood - but are you referring to my post (is it inapproriate?) or are you referring to the way the boat performs :?:

NO I do not think anything about your post was inappropriate. I was just making fun with you, not against you. I was hoping that the emoticon at the end would have conveyed that. I will be more careful in the future how I post.

Sorry if there was a misunderstanding,
Dan

Dan- no worries - its just American to Australian translation - I am new to the site and just not sure about the protocol for posts - I sort of thought it was a joke but I wasn't quite sure So best to ask - so that's cool.

Mark Laruffa's - its a nicely set up boat - very easy to drive.
