So I have just got off the phone to fellow Cherub chum Ben Brown to make final arrangements for the 1st UK meeting in Hull this coming weekend. The idea is to go and meet the builder Dave Butler along with the other UK made Farr of Dave Baker, have a sail with both boats look at the developments Butler has been doing and hopefully get some footage of both boats together. Very exciting stuff as this is the 1st real steps to getting the class up and running in the UK. After sailing the boat for 1\2 of this season I know that this boat does have a market in the UK and I really hope that having the chance to get together and discuss all things Farr related the UK boat will be one which is appealing to a number of different sailors in the UK. I hope to keep a bit of a video diary on the weekend so people can get an idea of how it all went.
Keep an eye on this space as I hope to keep updating the progress of the project. If it interests you get in touch through the blog.
