Lucky fellow!

Actually, I am thinking about a new tender, and an optimist is such a good boat, it might work well as a tender, as well as a racing boat.

Would you recommend it?

The only problem with the Optimist as a dinghy is that it doesn't have much cargo carrying capacity.

I think yes

I can neither confirm nor deny that.... But, I do think that it will be even less suitable as a tender for you after the Hoildays...

Thanks for the advice Fred. I loved sailing Optimists and then went on to Lasers. As I don't fit into my wet-suit any more, I think you are right. (Sigh!)

SD - Pity, I was hoping to regain some of my misspent youth.

I am guessing that if you did fit into a wetsuit, you would resemble this:
