Is it just me or is there no way to search this forum :(

How high (low) do you train over ground, when the box is almost over your landing field?

Last season I was at Gelitzen and would stop the manouvers at about 300m, this allowed me to just reach the (alternative) landing field a couple of times when I miscalculated or messed up. But this year I'm flying at different locations due to time and budget constraints, and often reach the "box" with under 400m.

I was looking at this but I worry it's out of date. Does anybody have it? Is it still relevant?

I have a fishing boat with a 40hp outboard. It does 50km/hr with just me in it. Id imagine the speed would drop to 35 -40km/hr with an extra person and towing a glider.
Just wondering if anyone has tried towing with a smaller engine and how small

I'm part of a club that bought a boat/winch for acro runs over water. I'm psyched about this season. However, I'm getting mixed advice on life preservers/floatation.

1) Some guys say, "Get one of those slim/inflating life preservers, you hardly know it's there and you might be glad you have it."

2) Other guys say the inflating variety will wedge you in your harness and cause problems. Instead, they suggest a traditional semi-bulky life preserver.
