      Before I take the plunge and buy a pair of OKs, is there anyone around willing to let my son have a go in a boat, just to check it’s right for him please?

      I know just how good they are having raced one for a couple of years about 20 years (and at least 1 1/2 stone) ago, but the boy (14, 6ft 1in, 78Kg) has never tried one.

      We currently sail at Farmoor, so would be able to make any time that’s convenient…

      Many thanks, Jon

      Hi Jon

      Your son sounds well suited for an OK. I would be more than happy to let him and you have a sail in my boat. I am a member at WOSC but was also a member at Farmoor a few years ago.

      My boat is in the garage at home at the moment but I can bring it along to Farmoor if you like or meet you at wosc, its about time I moved it back down there!

      Give me a call on 07811 990145 or e-mail [email protected] and we can arrange something.

      Cheers
      Anthony

      Gents, thank you so much for your offers!

      If you’re sure it’s OK (snigger), I’ll bring Cameron over to West Oxfordshire on Saturday?
      Richard – Cameron is pretty sure he knows you from Farmoor… will be good to meet up at the weekend.

      Again, thank you everyone for your help
