Title: Queen Mary Cherub Blast & Open September 27/28 2014
Post by: andy_peters on July 16, 2014, 11:40:04 PM
After discussion with Paul at Weymouth there is room for an event end September (27/28). 

Saturday blasting, boat swapping and perhaps taking some potential cherub sailors for rides (perhaps a speed competition).  Start time whenever you choose (club opens at 9:30 - we will be there from 10)

Sunday 3 back to back Windward Leewards on the big side of the reservoir.  2 races to count.  Start time for race 1 will be 10:35

Accom - Chez Peters or Premier Inn & Travelodge both at Sunbury Cross

Food and Drink Sat eve as usual by the river in Lower Sunbury.  Choice of pub food, Indian, Chinese or Italian.  I will book what the majority desire.

Entry fee £30 for the 2 days.

Fuzzy will try to make it. I have few other commitments to get out of first, but optimistic.

Just a thought. if Saturday is a blast, is there potential for contacting yachts and yachting to advertise for people to have a go?

There is nothing stopping us putting it on the YY public forum.
It never hurts to have the class mentioned.

Andy, would QMSC have any issues with this? If not do you have access to the Y&Y forum?
Title: Re: Queen Mary Cherub Blast & Open September 27/28 2014
Post by: andy_peters on September 12, 2014, 09:02:18 AM
Don't think so - I'll check on Sunday.  Once I've done that I'll contact Mark at Y&Y and get an article put on the main pages and start a topic on the forum.  I have a user name somewhere tho I haven't posted for ages.

As Saturday is a blast they would be very welcome to come along and have a go in Eleanor.
I don't know if any crews are needed for Sunday.

I've 'publicised' this on Y&Y and had a reply from Mark Jardine.  I have yet to see it appear though :(

I hope wind guru has the forecast wrong this weekend. It's looking very light.

Humm less blast more whimper.  At least rain isn't forecast.  Still there is wind nearby the north UK over the w/e so lets hope it drops southwards

A disappointing weekend wind wise. No sailing at QM this weekend. Thanks to Andy and Jill for hosting once again.

sorry for not coming but we took a butchers at the forecast and thought the weather slightly 'iffy'. We sorted Joes GCSE go-pro sailing evidence in good wind on the Friday though. Mothie sailing is improving! looks like I might be in the pointy end soon. Oldest 'FB' on the wire!
