Forecast looks great for the weekend - just wish I could join you! Have a fantastic couple of days of sailing - I'll think of you while sat in the orange plastic motor blob teaching kiddies!

I'll be down between 9.30 and 10 tomorrow to put the kettle on. Any chance you could bring your list of 1965 handicaps again please. Nice breeze forecast, look forward to seeing you again.
Cheers

Peter's list is no ordinary one . . . . it is a translation of the CVRDA numbers into our pursuit black box numbers, adjusted so that an Ent races for an hour. Or so I remember. Jolly clever anyway.
Hope the teaching goes well,
Steve

A good but very tiring day today with lots of wind! A good turnout though, with a GP in double figures and myself both wearing wooden masts. The usual large number of Albacores with several Solos and OKs and the lost classes represented by both a Turtle and a Sailfish

Steve, Bill and all at NSC,
An big thanky to all the members at NSC for a great weekend, you folks at NSC made us very welcome you have a lovely time, Steve you have every right to be very proud of your club its seems a very happy and relaxed club. Nathaniel had a great time despite his closer brush with the Trent than he wanted.

We will come and see you again. Hopefully we can give a better account of ourselves on the water and bring a few more vintage GP's with us!

Very best Regards and thanks again.

Thanks for that, a pleasure to meet you and it's good to know we're doing something right despite the weather.
Sorry I missed you to say cheers, I was probably returning the rest of the Trent from the boat back where it belonged. I'm sure we will be holding a similar event next year, when as Bill put it the law of averages would suggest we get something more than a drifter but less than a gale. Report results photos etc will appear in the fullness of time.
I' ll send you details of other open meetings if you want to come down again this year when on in-law duty perhaps.
All the best
Steve
