Hi Rob
 
I sent another mail trying to say how built it overly wide to start with and that the rudders were shown on the plans aft off the hull side. But the rudders dragging and not kicking up was the problem that lead to the off the beam, and then the rotating on the pipe drum ones copied from yours, then to the current ones. I understand the people are interested in bigger ones, so why bother sorting out camper. If it can be sorted out - do you think its size makes it always going to be more of a hassle?

G'day,

Good stuff. I would appreciate it if you caould alter the first bit
so that it does not look like the plans were wrong and this is why you
made the changes. Otherwise excellent. I still buy the magazine, but
only to see what the other guys are up to. Next time you are passing,
feel free to grab a bunch if you want to. Bit more comfortable than
standing in the newsagents! The latest one has the big article by
Giles about sailing Rare Bird. I will be scanning this and putting it
on the web page when the next magazine comes out.

regards,

Rob
