There was one thing that struck me quite strongly about that evening: how old the audience was.
I'm not youngster but I was almost certainly below the mean age of those there, and it was particularly noticeable given how young Matt was - or at least relatively.
And it raised a couple of questions:
- Was the audience representative of the CA in general?
- Have cruising associations always been for those in their "prime of life"? - maybe because yacht owning involves a degree of both wealth and experience.
- If not when was it that cruising associations involved more young people?
- Does it matter?
- If so how could they widen their appeal?

Good question. I have never joined a cruising association.
Maybe when I'm older I might feel that I'm too old for Laser racing and then I might do some cruising.
And then when I feel I'm too old for cruising I might join a cruising association.
Isn't that how it's supposed to work?
Surely shome mistake as its well known that Tillerman is aiming to "die on his Laser"?
I plead guilty to inconsistency and ask for 362,873 other offences to be taken into consideration.
