Hi Everyone I'm currently the only solo sailor at Swanage however i'm letting as many people as I can at the club try out my boat to get them interested in order to try to build a fleet. I'd like to host a solo open there someday in the future as it's a great venue for competitions and I'm trying to get the club back into hosting them. On the 16th, 17th September it's the Swanage regatta and it would be great if some Solo's could come along. The details are on the sailing club website www.swanagesailingclub.org.uk.(http://www.swanagesailingclub.org.uk) Thanks all! Doug

In Go Faster tips and questions.
Hello everyone Could we get a collection of pictures of the various centreboard adjustement rigging methods on the website? All of the solo control lines are simple and obivous enough but there are lots of variations on adjusting the centreboard. When I bought my solo a few months ago it had separate up and down lines, which I've converted to a one line system which i just move in either an up or down direction but it's not as smooth as I hoped it would be. So I'm keen to see what the other variations are on how people rig up their centreboard adjustment. From the few times I've been out practicing, it feels to me like getting the correct c/b angle upwind according the wind strength and sea state makes a noticable difference and so to have smooth adjustment seems to me to be more important than other boats I've sailed. Anyway, any pics of different systems would be appreciated. Doug.H
