                    Hi Chris
                    You’ve gone from one scale extreme to the other!
                    Looking forward to seeing your small-scale seascape. And what this does mean, of course, is that we don’t have to wait till the warmer weather to see Tiger sail. Although I do see this as whet the appetite build!
                    Have fun Chris
                    Paul

                            Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.
