Both Richard and I are new to the 5000' class, and despite great enthusiasm seem incapable of keeping our boat upright. We would both like to come to the...
All, Great to see that there is resurgence in the L5k fleet. These are great boats and really rewarding to sail once you've spent some time in them and worked...
Thomas, Thanks, I am waiting for an answer from my old crew who is currently in Tunisia (lucky for some!). The likelihood is that I will need somebody and am...
Iain We can bring our boat down, apparently in the correct hands its quite quick, It was formerly owned by west country watersports, and did well at garda....
Taff, Im sure you have yor fingers crossed that your normal crew makes it back from Tunisia, but if we can be of assistance (or hinderance) then either Rich or...
We are hoping to get there on Friday evening, who else will be around for a few beers? Can anyone recommend a B&B / pub / inn convenient for a decent pub in ...
Dan, Thanks for the offer. I won't know until Si (my old crew) gets back from hols and then finds out his work dates etc. I will be there whatever, so will...
Not quite sure when we will get there yet. Probably late on Friday night! For beers, there has to be someone from Southampton on this forum to recommend a pub?...
Suppose I should probably say something as Weston's my club! I've not been down here long though so I've not checked out the pubs yet - not been down much as...
Dan, Richard and Richard....and Si if he can make it. We've got sailing buddies for each of you so, assuming you can still make it, you can sail. I'm...
Matt, Great, sounds good, I am looking forward to racing/getting experience in fleet of 5k instead of being the only one in a handicap fleet. Thanks mate Taff ...
All, There are a couple of pubs in Netley if you arrive too late to get into Southampton. One is called the Prince Consort, on the sea front near the park,...
Guys, GBR5225 is for sale on ebay. It is at only at £200 so far so it could be a bargain. We may as well try to get it to a sailing club where we already have...

Dear All, Further to various emails, telephone calls etc, I am delighted that a long list of L5Kers will be at weston. The Association is finding its feet...
I crewed in a laser 5000 for the 1st time on Sunday (1st time in an asymetric and only used a spinaker a few time before) and it was ok except getting the...
Dave, The key to getting the kite down is making sure that the bloke at the back keeps the boat real deep, this shadows the kite and depowers things. This will...
Dave, From my limited experience, this is not a simple manoeuvre. To take the pressure out of the sail in windy conditions, you have to go deeper down wind....
Any body got any idea... a) how many Laser 5000's b) how many boats in total (I understand we are sailing as part of the skiff open) ...will be there at the...
