I've had my Buzz for 6 months now and I'm loving it!
This is where I'm at, I realise there's still a lot I need to improve on, any advice welcome!

Hi Yann,

a couple of boat adjustments I apply when sailing the Buzz singlehandled:
1) I use a longer jib sheet, and I tie the end to the trapeze handle. That allows me to work the jib even if trapezing without too many troubles

2) I attach two shackles to the back blocks for the genny sheets, and pass in those the Trapeze elastic, so I have the trapeze closer to me after tacking-jibing.

Hope to see you in Maccagno (Lake Maggiore, Italy) at the end of July for the EuroCup - plenty of advice to be found! (You'll need a crew!)

Please contact me
paolomoncia "AT" tiscali "DOT" it
so I can add your email to my Buzz mailing list and keep you informed about news and events.

Hi Ian

Nice video, how did you set up the camera?

The Buzz Association hopes to run a training weekend in May 2012 and you are most welcome to attended. The training will take place on the Solent and the aims are to improve rig setting, sailing techniques and to participate in club racing, along with a social get together.

If you are interested can you send your e-mail to: buzz.membership@btinternet
