    The Gougeon F40 Adrenalin is back in racing trim and should compete in the upcoming Phuket Multihull Solutions race week.

    Trimarans!

    Great news-thanks! One of the first tri's, that I remember, trouncing the same length cats... A proud tradition up held by USA 17!

    Great, sad that someone just left it setting for so long.
    Is there a blog for the restoration?

    Excellent that Adrenalin has not been altered and remains historically original - because when it was here in Auckland, some dummies were rabbiting on about making it fit the local rules ... which meant more accommodation, cabin, motor and so on. Very good that Arne Duckworth saved the famous design by taking it away.

    Corley,

    More please, I particularly like the designer articles, which contained some of the quotes I saw elsewhere for years.

    I'm attempting to get my hands on the clubs archive of the old newsletters to scan in as pdf's to save the information they contain. I'll post them up as I scan them.

    Missed them the first time around, so would be good to see scans of them.

    Corley how did you do the last one as there was a lot of unecessary white border around the pic of each page. Did you scan them and then drop them into Word, or did you not pull in the scanning borders before scanning or what..??

    Just looks odd..???????

    It was done using Open Office the pictures themselves are cropped but unfortunately it includes a surrounding page by default I'll have a look through the help files might have some information on how to prevent the borders.

    Gotta love the price at least! :)

    What format are the originals in? JPEG or what?
