Hi Sean - could do with a couple more from Shanklin actually - specifically, your female helms. Otherwise I have no-one sensible to talk to all weekend, with the exception of Sophia ....

And very good pictures they are too. Some of my favouritest pictures of Sprint 15 sailing so far ......

Hi All We chose not to use Paypal because we (or our entrants) would have to pay for the privilege. BACS is free. Payment is coming to the Association not to Thorpe Bay. Entries were fairly slow to start with - hence the infrequent updates. We then went from 20 to 50 in the space of the past five da...

Entries get uploaded onto the website once we have confirmation of BACS payment. I am currently bugging the treasurer every day for confirmation as new entries come in. There are another ten or more entries from the last 48 hours which will go up once payment confirmed. Oh and when I can fit it arou...

Hi Andy

It will be great to have the Plymouth contingent at Thorpe Bay!

I am happy to loan a mainsail for the nationals (possibly two, will check at the weekend) if that's any help?

The entry process is already available online with payment via BACS (Paper based entry forms will be available in the forthcoming magazine) For the Notice of Race, information about the...

Hi Dave

I have asked TBYC the question. Keeping the boat there might be possible. I doubt they will be able to support the caravan being their all week due to local council regulations - so you may need to make alternative provision for that. But I have asked and will let you know.

Jenny

Hi All The 2017 Sprint 15 Nationals make a welcome return to Thorpe Bay, Essex from 22nd to 24th July. Come and join us! Early bird entry discount is available so do get your entries in early. Free onsite camping. Lots of local accommodation - but worth getting your booking in early as its the first...

Congratulations everyone - looks like it was a fantastic event!

Well done Paul, Sam and Team McKenna

I will put up a prize for the Sprint 15 that ends up at the furthest location as a result of getting on the wrong ferry ......

Hi everyone Looking forward to welcoming you to the first Summer TT at Marconi next weekend. Just a gentle reminder - the club site is locked. So if you would like to drop your boat at the club on Friday night - please let me know in advance as I need to make arrangements to let you in. Thanks! Jenny

Hi Richard

Its great to welcome you to the fleet and I am glad you enjoyed yesterday as well!

As discussed yesterday - I have emailed some of our colleagues at Thorpe Bay who may have a Sprint 15 of the age and budget you are thinking of. Will put you in touch as soon as I hear back!
