Comment on Member Training Day 18 August 2012 by Martin

A dozen or so enjoyed a tropical day splashing around on the broad and improving our skills . Well done Gareth and me.

Arriving at 8am I was rewarded with another super blast on the Formula board for the 2nd weekend running. An hour and a half of blasting over relatively flat water, and only one of 6 or so craft on the broad.. 20 to 27 mph, blue skies, 26 deg, just heaven. Will have a smile on my face in the office all next week. Après windsurf drinks at the pleasure boat pub with big G, L and S too.

The broad must have been the best place to be in today’s heat…where was everyone?

Comment on Loan equipment – a hit with members by Martin

Finaly made a proper start to the season on Sun 22 April with some good planing conditions, but we were lucky. Just 4 of us. GI rigged up the club race board, JT on his long 80s Mistral, Wend on her trusty screamer / 8m V6, me on the barn door with 9m V8. Sorry too much detail? We were lucky because there was 3mph on arrival, but once on the water the wind kicked in thanks to rain storms elsewhere. F3-4. ideal for an hours worth of 26mph fun. Finally the rain kicked in so hot showers went down a storm! JT was called on to fix the ladies showers, nough said.

Just like to say thanks to everyone who made the funday happen; I really enyoyed the day and thought it was great to have so many sailors down at the club – I guess it’s up to the rest of us to try and catch up with what seemed to be a very fast and competitive top 3; roll on next year!

What an awesome day, it’s been a while since I was maxed out on a 4.7m and Hicking. Great turn-out, and I’ve never seen the carpark at full capacity before. Well done everyone, including big G for running the training and Dave White from Boards Magazine for popping in and taking so many pictures. I've uploaded the pics I took, if anyone wants copies of the original then please email me. Here is the link to the gallery

Thanks for letting me know, look forward to meeting you. About 60% of members I’ve spoken to are coming so we should be in for a good day. Forecast is warm, sunny, SW and F3 ish so that’s looking ideal too. Following on from Lester’s lead, please add a comment if you are coming. Regards, Martin
