Oh my god, when I saw Bill's at Llanberis I was gob smacked, now I officially think you're all ready for a rubber room.
Unbelievable, I'm going to have to come to one of your races.   :o :o

The boy Phil did well!!!
Yes thats what it's like on the sea as i understand. However as i get very sea sick on a mirror flat sea i haven't yet done a sea chase boat event. I am told by all that do, they have good fun. I can't see the point in laying ground bait for the fish. 
Still thats what OMRA is all about. Not just lake racing. If anyone Fancy's having a go Now's the time to be building next years race boat.
Bye for now.

Too true Bill - what the video doesn't show - is the poor model "driver" being chucked about in the chase boat at 30 mph +, with a face full of sea water, and bruises for the next month!  Oh, yes - it's good fun alright  :-))
Might have another go next year, if my knees have recovered by then (from last April  :o )
