Hi all, I have just put the new sails on and I am delighted - just the lightest of breeze (moored) so I could get a good idea of how they will set and they are fabulous! My thanks to Steve Birch for his recommendation - I was worried that they would not fit or that I would have a problem but they are perfect first time. Friend (experienced sailor) thought they were very well made - nearly ready for off now!

ps - removed the Brydon Boy today and plonked the Portaloo in its place. It fits a treat and is the same height as the old one. Just need to find a way to fix it in place and arrange a drain for the sink but it will be fine for now. Thanks to Peter for the idea - it has saved me a lot of grief and expense.
...by the way - the Brydon boy had stress cracks on the bottom of the pump housing which caused the leak. I will stick it on Ebay for spares or repair as I have put all new seals etc in it. Someone may find a use for it.
