Title: N12 Training at Olton Mere
Post by: Chris Troth on 28 Apr 2009, 09:57
On 30th May, there will be a training session run by Graham Camm at Olton Mere SC.
The plan for the day is to be ready rigged for a briefing at 10:30am. Most of the home 12s will be sailing so I'm hoping we can be joined by plenty of visitors! The bar will be open!
For directions, please visit www.oltonmere.org (http://www.,oltonmere.org)
Please write on this thread if you are hoping to come along - we have a 12 boat limit, including the home boats.

We're up to 8 boats now. We can take another 4 maximum. If it turns out that anyone who is already coming cannot make it, post on the thread and then someone else can sign up.

That sounds great. I think we're full up.
Hopefully see everyone in a few weeks.

Hi all. A couple of boats have pulled out so a couple of spaces have become available. If any visitors could confirm their attendance on here that would be great.
Hopefully see you on saturday morning.

graham asked for a helper if we had a good turnout,  and we have secured the services of a guy called Mr Angell. I believe he might have had something to do with masts and carbon, but I cannot be sure.
apparently he might have been quite handy in a moth a few years back too.
doing a beer mat calculation we are on about 9 boats definite at the moment, with a fair few possibles. I am sure if we end up with 13 or 14 there will be no complaints, so if anyone else wants to come along and benefit from the training, post here and I am sure we can make you welcome.
I am wanting to be trained in my cheshire (gordon), so if someone is not able to bring a boat and wants to borrow token gesture for the day, I am happy to provide boat as well as hospitality.

Hi Foxi, Kev et al,
On balance, after all the mileage travelling back from 'Sar-fend', and due to alternate opinions within our camp, Ben and I look unlikely to attend. :(
Sad, because the humbling experience of TBYC is that we may benefit from some coaching ! ;D
Weather looks promising with sun and fluffy breezes - have fun !   8)
