SDzzz almost no on this one. hopefully easter white stuff calling,  powder in the morning - slush in the afternoon

[ade white]

SDzzz is a definate no on this one. I am away on school trip; hope its warm, the sun shines and its 15+winds.

Madge is also a no go due to an 18ft training event at datchet

[Team Slatter]

Unfortunately team Slatter are in hot and sunny Dubai and Saudi ( going to sail moths and 18ft skiffs along with checking the progress of the paterson 8 currently being constructed out there), I am looking forward to the next event after this.

Poppy is definitely yes and looking forward to it.
BS is available for loan as can be double stacked to the event.

 Si is there crashing accomodation at this one or can we sleep at the club?

[HobbitSteve]

I will try to be there with robin, depends how fast we get up to speed and how windy it is, will confirm nearer the time

[roland_trim]

Suggestion is to turn up   :-) You have a very good '97 rig with that boat too?

[simon_jones]

As normal anyone who wants a bed/floor space is welcome to stay at my house. This is a cherub only event, so if you can make it please do as the club would appreciate as many boats as we can get.

[Graham Bridle]

We're planning on attending.

[Thomas Baker]

Cheese will be there, looking forward to it!

[BAKER]

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Am intending to bring Cheese (and Tom) to Sheppey. We are very new to the Travellers series so was wondering if there is likely to be an event update on this forum or if anyone out there can offer an advice on times, cost, accommodation, etc.?

Crewed Cheese for the first time on Sunday, still struggling to walk on Wednesday!

Dean and/or Si will be along to confirm shortly about timings and cost.

As a general rule expect entry to be around £30. Si has indicated that accommodation is via floor at either the club or Si's house (both about equidistant from the bottom of the slipway).

All welcome and should be a fantastic event - sheppy are always very welcoming.

((PS The only way it gets easier is with more time in the boat :-) ))

Todays's rumour is that Born Slippy will be there. Piloted by a skinny hairy kid - with some serious military hardware on the wire.
