Can you still get into the pink starfish outfit on your FB page? Means you have Spongebob Squarepant's friend Patrick already sorted!

Haha! In that case I predict 100 Barry Johns, 2 Charlotte Churches and a rather disturbing Gellert covered in blood.

Hi pip still thinking about it....I'd like us all to come as our boat names again, as most people have new boats it would be all change. However my fellow organiser Sophie seems reluctant...I wonder if it's because she's sailing in a boat called Paradine Shift?

I blame John Rees!

A paradigm shift (or revolutionary science) is, according to Thomas Kuhn, in his influential book The Structure of Scientific Revolutions (1962), a change in the basic assumptions, or paradigms, within the ruling theory of science...

Have you googled "Poke the Turtle" then, quite revolting.

Good job we changed the name of our boat then. Might of had some arguments as to who went as Fluffbum and who went as Babylove!

Boat names is always good & it has been a while since we did that

I wonder if 'Fifty Shades' will be coming to Tenby...

Having been mentioned by name in this thread, and following on from the "Red Snapper" the Paradigm (at least you can spell it) Shift is easy - Paradigm Shift
◾4 oz. watermelon juice (see notes below)
◾1 oz. simple syrup (see notes below)
◾2 oz. limeade
◾2 oz. gin
◾thin lime slices for garnish

The notes you will have to make up for yourself, think perhaps more gin and less syrup. However she is a very pretty boat, one of the more photo genic craft, you will look glam in the photos, and always remember - it is not anti fouling, it is Light French Blue, the emphasis being on LIGHT.

As an aside anyone need a front hand or a helm? Have not 100% got head round dates but may be available

I can now confirm that the fancy dress theme for the Nationals is indeed Boat names... so get designing (or re-naming!)! Things are shaping up well for the socials as we can also confirm that there will be a live band, disco, bbq, town party in the harbour with fireworks and fresh from a tour of Switzerland... Nick the Fish!

Not to be missed
