Finally got out in the new boat yesterday for the first time.  All seems to work and have some sails that look fit for purpose just need to get the helm and crew a bit more sorted out.
Now packed up and in London ready to go to Salcombe..nothing like a little practice before our first Gul Event with her - I did mean for it to be more than one day of club racing with one of the crews!

Great we look forward to seeing you all. I am just getting the final details from the club and will post them asp. The Merlins recently had fantastic conditions for their Silver Tiller Series a couple of weeks ago ( by this I mean sunny but I think the wind was good too) and hope we will also. I have been approached to see if ther are any spare crews, we have A level fever and a Sunday job in our household so Rosie may be able to do a bit of the weekend if other crews would also like to do a part, if not the whole weekend. 
We have 3 N12 out regularly at the moment, Reg in his new red boat creeping up on us, Norman is experimenting with a foiling rudder and we wobble on. We suspect a few others might come out of hibernation too. 
See you soon Helen Para Docs

I'm with you Alan.....  It seems a bit odd to be threatening a late entry penalty and then hiding the entry form... or is this part of a cunning plan....

Neal

Entry form now there.

Is there somewhere to leave the boat on Friday night and if so what time do we need to be there by ?
Thanks
Gerald (for Nick & Steve 3528)

Antony (Guest)

Gerald,
In the past there has been no problem getting into the car park from where we launch and leaving it with the other boats that look like 12s or in an empty space that looks like it will not be in the way early on Saturday ..... My eta is about midnight on Friday so I certainly hope to do the same again this year...
