Title: RYA Dinghy Show 28/2 - 1/3
Post by: Neal on 22 Feb 2015, 10:28
All, 

The Dinghy Show is taking place at Alexandra Palace next weekend and the NTOA stand is B46 in the Great Hall.  We're displaced two boats; A foiler (Very Hungry Caterpillar) and an Admiral's Cup (Indecision).

The Yachts and Yachting preview can be found at http://www.yachtsandyachting.com/news/181371/National-12s-at-the-RYA-Suzuki-Dinghy-Show (http://www.yachtsandyachting.com/news/181371/National-12s-at-the-RYA-Suzuki-Dinghy-Show) and more to follow.

Look forward to seeing you all there.

Neal.

Indecision and The Very Hungry Caterpiller looked great at the Dinghy Show this weekend. Thanks to Neal and Meds for running the stand!

All - many thanks to Alan Beeton for taking a day out on on Thursday to set up and help with some tricky boat logistics.  Mrs Meadowcroft too for sterling work on Sunday afternoon and packing everything up.
Felt like a good event and we were in top the final five for the Concours competition, unfortunately rather like beaing on the water Indecision was beaten by another craft with foils...

With Indecision looking so good on the stand at the dignhy show she should have won the Concours competition.
