If you own Buzz 435, why not say so in your profile? Where is your sailing club? Give the community details of your location and someone might find you are very local to them and pop over to give you a hand.

This advice goes for all users of this board!

As for rigging tips, I still can't beleive that a Buzz owner hasn't produced a propper sailors guide (not a manufacturer / retailers guide who have no idea about how to set the boat up correctly!)

Get with it Buzz class if you want to keep the class active!!

The Topper guide is OK for rigging but not that much use for tuning. Andy Holmes, Wet-Windy, also has a video, again more useful for rigging.

As Pete says it's best to find someone locally. Post here or send you details to the membership sec (on the website) and I'll see who is near you if that helps.

Hi.

I have now found time to make available the original Topper guide, this version from about 7 years ago. I can post it to you if you email me at bailey.stu@btinternet.com with your address.

I just need to make time to produce a version for the web site now!!

Stuart.
