Guest Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 No problems.....I'm chasing your title Hopefully won't be club clash's going on...but there inevitably are. Up to 26 is all about getting us small boats out sailing in a similar fleet....So the more the merrier! I've kicked off a quarter ton thread separately- I've been hunting out old 1/4 ton pics and stuff. There is some interesting reading around. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Hi Guys, We intend to enter, so there will be another 1/4 tonner Are you the new owner, or the old one? Are there many Whiting 26s around? New owner. Not sure how many are around, but it is good to see the returning interest in the quarter tonners. Link to post Share on other sites

New owner. Not sure how many are around, but it is good to see the returning interest in the quarter tonners. There are quite a few of us keen to see the revival amongst the Upto26club......
