Pwllheli Nationals 2016

The latest issue of Yachts & Yachting has a guide to Pwllheli (& Abersoch). Reading it won't guarantee a top 3 finish but it is a useful introduction to the area/venue. The article says you can "Find out more with Y&Y's Event Spotlight pages at yachtsandyachting.co.uk" but I dr...

Re: Nationals 2015

Am I right in thinking that we can just pitch up (ha ha) with a tent with no need to book?

Re: Newsprint Spring 2015 Edition

I found the latest edition of Newsprint to be an excellent read with a wide variety of interesting articles. Well done to all who contributed and to George for editing, in particular to his decision not to reprint previous race reports which are usually dull and out of date. If inspiration strikes, ...

Magic beads, Gurnard, £2.50 - whilst accepting my simple life, I am nevertheless intrigued.

Re: Filey SC Regatta 2015 - 27th & 28th June

We have not managed to get the 6 required for a fleet start so Charles and I won't be going this year. However, perhaps we could try again next year as a "Northern Sea Event".

Re: Rumour about Erling

It would be genuinely interesting to know how such damage occurred. I don't think I have ever seen (or not seen) such a sail. Hope it is soon sorted Erling.

Re: Summer TT Series Heavyweight Champion

What about a prize for lightweights.

And on the subject of prizes, why didn't Stuart Snell win the over 50s at last year's nationals because he was that person (at least I don't think he won it)

Really sorry to hear about Stuart's collision. Hope it is soon repaired and he is back on the water.

Re: Attention:- Rutland event this weekend coming!!!!

Thanks Erling and George for the reply. I managed to sort the mast problem but then hit another hitch (no pun intended) so decided to settle for club sailing on Sunday. Very disappointed to miss Rutland. See you all at Netley.

Re: Attention:- Rutland event this weekend coming!!!!

I am trying to get to Rutland this weekend but have a trailer problem in that it does not have a mast support and my mast is 1-piece. Anyone know if a 1-piece mast can be carried on a roof rack, legally.

Re: Filey SC Regatta 2015 - 27th & 28th June

I have, belatedly, registered Halifax SC on [url]http://%20www.catamaran.co.uk/clubs[/url]

Interesting to see that the portal states that http://www.ballyholme.com/ and http://www.gbsc.ie/ are in the same country - that could be seen as contentious in some circles.

Re: Filey SC Regatta 2015 - 27th & 28th June

I am one of those Northerners. As Charles says, I don't feel it will clash with the Sport nationals at all, just give northern based Sprinters a rare chance to get together locally for some racing on the sea when they would otherwise stay at home. I have contacted Filey SC who are keen to have us an...
