Title: Winter Sailing - Ripon Sailing Club
Post by: Roly Mo on 27 Oct 2008, 06:54
Ripon SC will once again be running their Frostbite series, and it starts next Sunday for those not heading off to Northampton. 
The series runs on Sundays through to 14 December with three races per day during November, and two per day in December.  It is an open series and it would be great to see some 12's coming along to join in, either for a day or for the series.  Boat berthing at the club during the series may be possible.  If you want further information please get in touch,

Great news!
 
Should have mentioned, 11am start each day.  Am in the safety boat on 9th so not a good day to capsize!

Great to see 12's out enjoying the conditions today - even if I had to rescue one of them!  The series runs every weekend through to mid December, 3 races per day during November, and 2 per day in December.  30th November is looking like  a good 12 day in terms of turnout - why not come and join us?

Sorry, won't be there as going to Suffolk to see Gpa Clark and enjoy some (probably lots of) Adnams Ale - but Martin, Andrew and Tim should be there.  Really glad to hear Nutmeg has gone to a good home, enjoy sailing her.  Will be at RSC 30th November, at Largs next weekend,

Simon - Bernard's right, Martin, Andrew and I should be there - we'll be launching 'Thriller' for the first time too.  I believe Howard Chadwick will be joining the fray fresh from a holiday in sunny Tenerife - better warn him it won't be swim trunks and sunglasses weather! If you want to e-mail me some pics of Nutmeg I'll shrink them in Photoshop and send them back so you can put them on the Boat Database for everyone to see.(tim.gatti@yorkshirewater.co.uk)

Looks like a nice day with about 10mph so I will keep the sun glasses but add a drysuit instead of the sun cream and see you all at Ripon, hope to make all days in the series except when we go to Newburn next week for our open on the Tyne. Looking forward to seeing all these new Northern 12's, better use my new sails or we will be left behind.  Howard C.
