Greetings. An early date for your diaries - 14th & 15th May 2022 Vintage Champs at Trent Valley. Usual format with three race Derwent Handicap on the Saturday, evening social and Open Meeting on the Sunday. It would be helpful to have an early indication of interest; there will be vintage boats from the Turner Collection available to sail by competent(!) helms. Px
Hi Paul, While May is a long way away I certainly hope to be there complete with a rejuvenated Reflection. I'll try not to leave so much stuff behind this time ::)
Greetings. The Vintage Champs at Trent Valley on 14/15th May are not that far away now, Angus! Who is coming out to play? Graham Camm has already booked "Shotgun", Gerard Copsey "Mr Jones" (subject to dodgy legs), John Sears will be there with N1903 so who else is joining us (even if it's just to watch, eat drink and reminise? P 8)
Greetings. Only 10 days to go and we only have seven entries for the Vintage Champs and the Sunday Open meeting at Trent Valley. Dust off that clinker yot that you have lurking in your garage/hiding in the dinghy park and sign up. We are welcoming any non-racers who just want to whiz round the bay/chat with other N12 sailors. The Sunday is an all comers standard open meeting. We are holding a Trent Valley rules skittles night on the Saturday evening (with food). So that we can organise catering, please let us if you are coming along even if just to watch and natter. RSVP paul@ryehillfarm.com
