Hi Malcolm
Should be good fun. As of last weekend there were 12 or so entries I think. Hopefully plenty of last minute ones too!

That should be a fun time. I missed the local meet up in the canadian san juans last weekend, heard there was 23 or 27? boats, from 34' on up. We would have been the smallest at 30' again. Total was about the same as last yr.
Hopefully next yr we can make it.

Guys
We would really like to be there.
We are leaving Brightlingsea on the 11th bound for Dover then Brighton on the 12 and arriving at Cowes on the 13th. We then go to Poole on the 16th for the Laser radio controlled nationals and then back to the east coast starting on the 21st.
I hope you all have a fantastic time and hopefully it will be organised for next year.
Happy Sailing.
Geoff.

We will be there, good opportunity for a bit of quiet boat fixing, and some fun. Hope nobody follows us across Shotley Spit......

Sorry we can't make it our youngest is on a school field trip and does get back home until Saturday lunch time by which time it would be to late to set off.
Hope it goes well.

I'm guessing you've got a lifter then Jim?
Should be a good event, haven't raced the Jeanneau in ages so I expect we'll be very rusty!
Hope there are a decent few entries anyway, look forward to meeting some of you guys.

....so I expect we'll be very rusty! Tim That I doubt very much with your practising on the Projection - and if you can claim to be rusty - then I am totally oxidized Magic seaweed is currently forecasting just a light NE breeze so may end up as a drifting match Also look forward to meeting up Malcolm SO39i Serica of Woodbridge

Well, it is the other end of the sailing spectrum!
Didn't realise you had a 39 now. They look fast out of the water, yet to see one sailing yet. Do you have any idea how many boats are taking part this weekend?

Tim
Think it is over 20m best to call Steve at C&C for an update
We really pleased with the 39, she is the shallow draft though so will have traded upwind perfromance and gained extra ballast as we are normally more up the creek than round the cans.....
See you Saturday
Malcolm

Great pictures Malcolm!
Our temporary masthead hoist for the day does look a little silly
