If so, you ought to know that the CVRDA and Trent Valley SC are running a special sailing weekend Saturday 30th June/Sunday 1st July - this is in addition to the Vintage/4 PLank event in September!

The weekend will include time trails on Saturday from 10.00 (F1 style with a maximum of three attempts at the fastest lap of the course), a grand Summer Ball to celebrate the Clubhouse's 100th birthday (with band including yours truly on guitar/sax, disco with famous in his own lunchtime local radio DJ and absolutely fabulous food in three marquees) plus handicap racing on the Sunday (three races from 10.30am). You can bring ANY boat over 25yo!

To book or for more info please ring Roger Britton on 07866 520 601 or contact me.

Oh, and John Sears has acquired a 30yo boat especially for the event!

I know that NWNW clashes with the Burton (Saturday 28th July to Saturday 4th August) but who (apart from me) is chickening out and going east to enjoy the four "S"s of the Norfolk ?

Paul TVSC N3157/2487/2020 (but not N3500!)

PS 4"S"s = sand, sea, sun and sailing?

[For the GILL meeting on 12/13 May, first Race Saturday 13.00, second race after a late lunch and possibly a crews race (if time and tide allow!) after tea.There will be a talk by Kevan Bloor about sails(!) at 19.00 followed by supper at 20.00 (with a folk band afterwards). Sunday breakfast at 08.00 and race 3 at 10.30, race 4 at 12.00 (ish), with the last race after lunch.]

It's May Time - so it must be the (not to missed!) Trent Valley Open Meeting again! And it's another special year at TVSC - this is the centenary year of our clubhouse, and, we believe, the 70th anniversary of the first N12 open here at Trent Lock. The GILL meeting on 12/13 May is the first of three events for N12s this year, the others being the Summer Ball weekend 30th June/1st July with the Classic & Vintage Mob and the Vintage & 4 PLank meeting on Saturday 22nd September.
