Sail repair course

[Cardiffcruiser]

Maybe a car pool if we can get a few together (depends on cost per head for course)

PM sent. I'd be interested in this course, at the right price, especially if we can get a lift share going from South Wales.

 

[Goldie]

Only just spotted this thread, but more potential interest here! Thanks for the thought.

Cindy - will you be intending to do any more after Jan 8th?

 

[Bosun Higgs]

Would love to. Unfortunately we live west of Cardiff. It is something I would be intersted in if there was any chance of a workshop nearer.
Brilliant idea.

You could try Bristol sails - they have run a similar course in the past. A pal has a genoa built by his wife when going the course.

 

[sarabande]

possible west country course

WS may be in the area at the end of Feb. What about the West Country mafia fixing a day course over here ? Perhaps Taunton or Exeter . I can bring along a couple of machines.

Mr & Mrs Full Circle for the February 19th please.

PM sent, as we say around here.

 

[Parsonsheath]

Yes,interested,the ability to arrange a "stitch in time"would be nice,just worry about doing more harm without guidance.

Not looking for skills at sea,just low level general maintenance.

Cindy

Are you trying to tell me that, after shelling out £45, I still wouldn't be able to cut out and sew a main course for Herzogin Cecilie?

 

[temptress]

I'm certainly interested although at present in the Middle East. PM me the dates and I'll see if I can schedule a visit to the UK around it. I have been looking for something like this for a long time.
