Hello, I have just joined the forum and despite being an on-off member of AYRS for many years, have just attended my first meeting in Thorpe Village hall.
It was a pleasure meeting everyone and I apologise for having to leave so early.
My AYRS-relevant background is in sailing (dinghy pottering, offshore yacht racing, land-yachting) as well as rowing (Thames Skiffs, Venetian boats) and gliding.
My interests at the moment are focused on a ultra-simple sailing rig for small boats which is raised, lowered and sheeted by a single control line. I have several applications in mind including a simple 12' sail-assisted rowing catamaran, a land yacht and a small coastal cruising trimaran or outrigger.
Best regards,
Chris
