Are there any other 97 rules boats going?

And is there anyone who fancies crewing?

I may be able to get my boat there which is 97 rules, towbar dependant. Otherwise I would be able to crew for someone, especially if they are 97 rules.

EJ will be there Sat and Sun - me and my nephew Jeremy.
There is plenty of him, so wind will be welcome!

May I park the van in the usual place, please?

Pretty sure Sven, Banshee, and I will be there all three days!

Any chance I could reserve floor space for the both of us?

Floor space van space all available.

The forecast is looking peachy at the moment.  Sun, heat and wind  ;D

Our evening suggestion is:

Saturday night the usual curry and pub visit
Sunday as the weather is looking good we thought we could have pizza and drinks in our garden/garden room.  Or alternatively go bowling and eat near there as per last year.  We will go with what the majority prefer - post your preference.   

Jill and I are going for the relaxing stay at home and drink/eat

Just had a look at the forecast, is this the first time this year it's had red in the temperature and not the wind speed?!

We may need to bring icecream!
Thanks

So that was a total non-event.  After a promising Saturday with almost too much wind (Usagi topped out at 19.2 knts) Sunday and Monday had no wind whatsoever.  Racing canned.

Will try to re-organise for Autumn
