Spread the word!
I think Cashbuyer has hit the nail on the head - we need to spread the word on having fun on the river - and sailing - and dinghy sailing - especially to kids - it would be so great if we could double the amount of boats on the water!!
Why don't we all post something on our facebook, twitter, all in our email address book, snailmail, wherever? and hope somewhere down the line someone new is inspired to take to the water?
I'd be honoured if you did this with this video!

I've had some lovely responses to this video - Many thanks to all who have, it has been my pleasure to make and show it!

Rope
....the boys have now added some luxury in the form of a tyre: far more comfortable than the stick that was there and more useable for smaller people with less arm strength
Long live simple fun!
