# Embarrassingly I have only been out once since Summer
and I was violently sick for the first time.

I should like to blame it on pot noodles, but it was undoubtedly poofiness on my part.

I need to get a trailer and tow hitch for my new truck, otherwise I can't take my tender anywhere so I am somewhat shorebound for a wee while (financialy embarrassed at the moment).

# Laser sails cost a grand?
I am very surprised to hear that, I thought they'd be about £200.

I was thinking about getting a mast and sail for my tender (you can get a kit for it with tiller, rudder, centre board etc for about £500) to teach the girls to sail as well.

I just seem to have so little time these days.

# yeah
a good standard set of sails can cost an arm and a leg but improve improve performance by 100%
