      HMS Antrim on the pond.
      General
      Hello all, I'am having a practice trial on this forum. Thought I would share a few pictures of my HMS Antrim, pictures mostly taken by other members. Hope you enjoy.

      FlySky FSIA6 and FS-R6B receiver binding
      Sail boat design and repair
      I came across this simplified binding procedure that I prepared several years ago. Since many of us use this system (and other similar badged makes), I thought I would add it to the forum. - John Arrow

      Clarification of Racing Rule 18.2 (d)
      Race strategies and tactics
      This rule states what should happen in the event that there is a dispute about whether an overlap existed when the first boat entered the zone of a mark (4 boat lengths) :- "If there is reasonable doubt that a boat obtained an overlap in time, it shall be presumed that she did not". This dispels the myth that it works the opposite way round. We all understand it is sometimes difficult to see, especially when sailing to a mark directly opposite the bank from a previous mark in line BUT, if there is any doubt about whether an overlap was obtained, err on the side of caution and presume you do not have one.
