Published 1 February 2026 This week we try and make keel boat racing easier, cheaper, more fun and more appealing for all. After our ORC discussion (Episode 335) I had a phone call from an old mate, Brett Whitbread.

We run through these ideas this week and present them to the World. It could be a game changer. We are really interested to hear your thoughts. E...
