About our Pilot Phase 2 Website... and other ideas

Hey - this great! It can only be good for the Datchet Fleet. (Andy is commenting here on our pilot phase 2 website, which you can also take a look at by visiting www.flyingfifteen.co.uk....Let me know what you think..DM)

I think DM really is becoming a voice for club sailors and our discussion on image and sail materials has been excellent: exactly the sort of thing only normally discussed at the AGM between, as I saw, top competitors who only had a real voice for the circuit goers. The boat is already beautiful and no amount of Mylar will change that. Simple marketing concentrating on the already positive attributes to owning an ff is the key in my opinion - and our fleet websites are a great way of getting that out there!

I had an idea we should have a team race on of those spare weekends, teaming last years average top points scorers with the lowest, making pairs. The total up the positions over (probably have to be three races) and the winners can maybe share a trophy that Mike has. Just a thought. It also encourages more tips and help from the top of the fleet to the bottom.
