Profile for user johnfromstaffs - Country: United Kingdom / England

Just post war baby-boomer, born same year as the Morris Minor. We all cut our driving teeth as teenagers on pre WW2 cars with no synchromesh, heater, radio or, in many cases, brakes!

Current drives, 1953 R-type Bentley Standard Steel Saloon which I have had for 41 years, and a 2018 Mercedes-Benz C220d AMG-line Estate Car. For IMCDB, I have interest in British cars and buses trying to cover the period 1920 up to about 1970, and also in being as awkward as possible. I have to admit that all cars built after about 1970 look the same to me.

Bolt upright, weight well back, bow wave coming from about a third of the way along the boat.
How to go fast in a racing dinghy. Perhaps the kicking strap could be a bit looser, and I tend not to loosen the shroud levers as it’s difficult to tighten them quickly.

Inland racing is not like racing on the sea.

Relaxing after a hard day’s race around the Isle of Wight.
