Untitled[edit]

Someone needs to link this (in both directions) with yacht racing and Racing Rules of Sailing. I'll get around to it - but if anyone else wants to jump in... I have also done a new article on Portsmouth yardstick, which should be linked. Hugh2414 09:53, 31 Mar 2004 (UTC)

might give people a better idea. OldManwoodian (talk) 05:19, 27 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
