I have spoken with Tom Vian at Draycote today regarding the event. The general plan goes something a little like this...
Saturday AM. Arrive and rig up down on the open meeting beach.
Saturday PM. Due to another event being held, we may launch from 1pm until the lake closes. So plenty of time to rig up, chat and have lunch.
Saturday Evening. Drinks at the club and then go to a Pub / Curry House / Chinese... whatever seems appropriate.
Sunday. We can launch whenever in the morning, and can sail all day. If people want to then they can take part in racing.
As this is being pushed as a 'post show blast' the more boats we can get there the better. Ideally we will have lots of interested sailors coming up and having sails in the boats which are currently available second hand, so if they can be there, all the better!
As the first scheduled sailing event of the year (unless your name is begins with Peter and ends in Barton!) it is good to get out and blow away the cobwebs after a long cold winter. Even if you can't bring a boat, come along and I am sure there will be enough spare boats and sailors for everyone to get out on the water.
