Nah.. 

On the Broads, you need something that you can takeoff and land on your cabin roof, and it doesn't need a toll....

Just like the Med Gin Palaces with their helipads.

I wonder if they liked being dunked in the water at the end?

not heard of a waterproof drone? I might need a few more than he had to get me airborn.

Oh hell no!!!...   I can see it now... Griff going under Potter Heigham bridge backwards on one of those

That's Mrs Gs next prezzie for Griff sorted! Errrrr if you fitted a few hankerchiefs here and there would it qualify for the 3Rs race???

Griff's a shootist not a ruddy morris dancer

NO it wouldn't qualify for 3RR but this would.

Down wind it has a special point for Grace too....

20 plus knots and there is no speed limit under sail power!!!!

[TheQ]

 if you find that a little slow then this

Has been known to hit 40 mph!!! They wouldn't qualify for 3RR as they are single handers but they could do the Tricycle winter mini 3RR.

 

 

And now the cold truth,

A, we don't often get the wind speeds these boats require.

B, it is even rarer to get the wind in the right direction on the river

C, on a river they would never get up to flying speed between tacks on the river.

D, they might get up flying on Barton or Hickling but one bit of weed and you'd come to a very rapid stop....
