    Hi,

    As a newbie, I'd better introduce myself.

    I'm Mark Whitehead and I've recently started Bellcurve Consulting, a quality systems and control consultancy.

    After 19½ years with my last employer, I'm starting to enjoy the freedom of sailing my own boat - though I'm sure that sometimes I'll miss the "security blanket".

    Ergh! I can't get my head around sailing into the wind! Taking and yawing? :?! That big pole always smacks me on the head!! :(!

    ANYWAY, welcome to the forums! I'm the life and soul of the party :D! If you need anything, give me a shout!

    :lol: When I first sailed the boom always hit me on the head when sailing a dinghy. I prefer yachts, much more fun and less prone to being knocked on the head unless in very rough weather. I am sometimes on a yacht that has 23 people on board! Its fun! ... even time to open a bottle of Mumm

    Where is the 'and'.... ah..you implied!...;) Anyway, the drinking helps with the tacking!!

    Also, a mechanic never fixes his own car...same for lawyers...they never follow the law!! :shock:

    Nigel, only oars...save a bit and you can get the boat to go with it, or recycle your old bath tub! ;)
