Starcross YC cvrda 28/29 June

Post by fatboyfinn »

I've just recieved an email from our Flat Captain saying that the dates I have earmarked for the CVRDA Event at Starcross are the same as the Exe Regatta.

At first I thought oh **** - but later realised that this was not such a bad thing. This is an open meeting with lots of publicity and and shore events dancing untill the early hours, spendid feasting, wine and beer flowing "free" in fact a jolly good time. Also, its not unlikely that there might be a glorious warm sea breeze blowing a steady F3/4.

If this is acceptable by the committee, then so be it.

Sounds like a good idea to me, provided the committee are happy to cope with the additional numbers. Can we also include it as part of the SW Finn Club series?

As Roger knows you would have to have a very low camper van to get under the railway bridge ~5ft 6. You could park outside in the lay-by but its not very salubrious. There is a small amount of space in the club but its very limited + there might be a small marquee taking some of that.

See our web site for detail of accomodation. I'll do some looking around for more camping sites.
