Who's bringing a Finn to Roadford.

Post by Brookesy »

So far we have six club Finns confirmed, although Big Alan is offering his for loan, Mark B from Stithians and PeterV I know are coming. Steve R from Plymouth can not do the full weekend but should be there on one day, so who else is coming.
I will be contacting as many other boats as I know of, but if you reply here it saves me chasing you.
We have one loan boat and may have another by then so if anyone is interested let me know.
Who knows we may even tempt Davidh into a real boat.

Nine Classic Finns now confirmed, and a loan boat is still available at Roadford, so come on guys lets make this the largest gathering of Classic Finns yet, I'm still waiting to hear from four Starcross boats, plus one from Chew Valley and one from Coombe Cellars.

9 Finns. Gulp...... I'm gonna look REALLY ordinary......

Seriously, that's a great result! I'm looking forward to this even more than I was before.
I may not be very clever but I can lift heavy things

Something (my involvement at Greenbelt) has been canceled, so I am going to have a look at a day pass for the Saturday only.... (with my Finn)

Great news John,
The race days proper are Sunday and Monday but there will still be plenty going on and we may be able to join in with the club races.

Anyway, he would be up for borrowing a Finn if there is still one going.

No problem Ed ,
I have a couple of minor jobs to get the boat into condition for racing but it will be ready for Roadford.
As mentioned on Sunday he will need insurance for the weekend but I think you know how to sort that.
That puts the Classic Finns into double figures....... :lol:
