Hi All,

Saturday was pretty light so I think we made the right call to postpone; we are now going to run the regatta on Saturday the 16th.  The sailing club are having their Autumn regatta this weekend so could be quite a few boats on the broad – could also be the chance to get in a warm-up prior to our event by racing the dinghies round!

Hi All,

well it was fantastic weather this last weekend and hopefully we will get something similar for the racing on Saturday; I'll keep updating the thread throughout the week planned format as before first race at 11.00 “long distance” followed by two shorter course races

The breeze looks good for Saturday but it's set to blow from the North – I had a look at the Met Office pressure charts this morning and the weather system could go a bit more West.  I am happy to go for it on Saturday but we need 4 or 5 to make it happen; a North wind is going to create more upwind sailing so let me know what you think

I was ok for the 2nd but away on holiday on this Saturday. I'm aware there is a lot of interest, including some who are not registerred on the forum. If there is wind then I'm sure there will be a big enough group. Happy racing…Cheers, Martin

If the wind stays in the north I shall be tempted to go to Wells on Saturday. How about racing there?Wink

It looks pretty set in the North probably going North Easterly on Saturday the chance of any more West in it seems to be slippig away; good direction for Wells Graham but I wouldn't be able to go there.

Let me know who's on for Hickling

Hi all,

doesn't look as though we have enough interest to make the racing happen tomorrow; i might go and race the dinghies anyway but I think the idea of organising anything is off with this North wind set-in

I'll probably turn up for a sail, so if others turn up we could always organise it on an ad hoc basis.

 

Toodle pip!
