Post by: 3513SL on 07 May 2016, 06:58
The next round of the Gul Series will be taking place at RHYC in two weeks time - who is coming along for 2 days of river racing & great entertainment ?


First race 11 on the Saturday.

There will be a separate handicap pursuit race on the Sunday AM - to be organised by the 12s (ABC - Anyone but Camm).


Camping available on site.


The weekend is also part of a vintage series!

I plan to come, at the moment I need a crew, a boat and some where to stay on Friday night but hopefully all that will get sorted.

3529 and 3348 will both be on the water.... with a bit of luck and some persuasion there should be 8-9 local boats of all shapes and ages...

Anybody interested in crewing for me. No qualifications require other than patience......you are even allowed to tell me what to do..........just so long as you don't expect me to take any notice.

I might be a little biased, but that was good fun!  Shame that the wind did not turn up today.
Thanks to RHYC for organising.

Brilliant weekend, thanks to all 17 boats for tuning up and being the biggest fleet. As Meads said, shame about the wind on Sunday but the 3 lively races on Saturday were brilliant!

Report and photos to follow

Good fun challenging races on Saturday. There seemed to be close racing all through the fleet.


Well done Ollie for your 3 straight wins despite having the handicap of your Dad at the back!


Thanks to Gul for the sponsorship.
