My name is Bryn Weightman, it seems as if I'm not the only aged ex Mothist who wants to relive his youth. Perhaps Robin Boyes and I know each other, I sailed at Upnor, Medway Yacht Club and also knew Charlie Reeves. Is he still around ? Tommy Cooper and his son, I think they sailed at Broxbourne, are two others I remember. I met them a couple of times at Medway YC regatta. Hope I enjoy Mothing as much as I did in those days.

I am sorry but I cant remember meeting you. I sailed only once at a medway week regatta,when the royals had Bluebottle there.I do remember Eric Scoble of hoo,and Peter Bluff too,we all went to the nationals at Poole I am aching all over,I forget how uncomfortable light weather sailing can be!It has wetted my appetite for more of the same so I am on the lookout for a club to join that will let me have a moth.

Eric was around 'til quite recently, we saw him at the 2005 Nationals, sailing under the burgee of Parkstone Mark

I think the year Bluebottle was at Medway I was sailing one of the old Kent 14s in the handicap class. I worked with Eric Scoble at Hoo Marina for a while.
