Cassidy Sailmakers

Haven't posted in an age. Super busy last summer and even in winter. I guess money not going on overseas trips is going into their new JHC yacht sails.
On a sad frustrating note our 11meter Ballistic was "T" B***d back in October last year by some blind n***y in a Foundation 36, on port, not looking.
Entire season out waiting on Insurance and extensive repairs. Hopefully back in action in a month sporting some new sails and a fresh, super fast, bottom paint job.
I fitted a String-drop chute and Assymetric Spinnaker to lessen the load on my aging crew. Speed increase won't hurt either.
Photos will be posted once we are back in action.

New company toy to put fast sails on. Ballistic is an 11 meter one-design.
So far only replaced the jib. More to come later.

Extremely sad news for the old Jess reams. Marianne Stenz passed away this afternoon after a long cancer battle. She was hospitalised a few days ago on her 80th birthday.
I’m sure Wolfgang could do with your condolences to help ease his grief.
I’m not sure how he will cope without her.
Let me know if you need a contact for Wolfgang.
Sincerely
Casso

Nice photos of our J24 with our standard class legal spinnaker. Thank to Gordon Lucas for the pics.

Great photo of our J thanks to Gordon Lucas.

New convertible cover for Windward 36 footer

Catching some rays with mum this morning.

Two of our fleet of J24s now wearing new Weathermax JHC covers. One more to come shortly.

Awesome day on the water at RFBYC mid week race. Our little J24 was fastest in the div 2 mixed fleet. Used our new non class #2 Genoa with brilliant upwind speed pushing 6 to 6.2 knots.

Congratulations Ray Leguier and the S80 crew. Second by a point in the 2019 states using our latest S80 sails for the first time. Awesome job team.
