Hi All,
Just a 'heads up' that the NOR is updated. Only change (at the request of the D18s) is a start time on Saturday to 1pm for the first race from the originally stated noon.
Gives you a later start on the road to travel or an extra hour in bed if you've arrived the night before!

Just to inform - for anyone arriving on Friday, the club will be open all day and into the evening until at least sunset.
In the evening the club BBQ will be lit with a 'bring and cook your own food' basis and the bar will be open.
On arrival, please ask either Sam or Helen where to leave your boat/trailer and camper van as appropriate. We have plenty water this year and also beach space.
See you Saturday - and oh! - please bring some wind!

A big shout out to all the travelling sailors who joined with 4 local helms to compete in very light and tricky conditions this weekend. 5 races completed with a different winner in each one with some memorable performances across the whole fleet.
And big congratulations to Jason Clarke who, fresh from his victory at the Dart 18 Worlds as top youth helm, took the win to become our 2023 Northern Champion - nice one, Jason - and much deserved. 8)
Results, pics and report to follow soon.

Well, we are a determined bunch us Dart 15ers. Also, Carsington is a beautiful venue and a very friendly host club - definitely a firm favourite for Team Marconi. It would have been a great weekend even if we did not get any racing in - but we did.
