Thank you to our Race Officers this Sunday Gordon & Martyn

Huge thanks to everyone for making the week such a success and for the unexpected, but very kind generosity shown towards Debbie Kilkelly and myself on the Friday…Thank you all!
May I please take this opportunity to apologise for the mistake with the results of the Hopper End-of-Week race (which were done in something of a hurry) and rectify them here. Tom Metcalf came 3rd, beating Alex Hadley with a determined and very fast time in his LaserRadial. Sorry for the mistake Tom and I hope we see you down at the club and on the water again soon.
Sorry also to Adele Morton and Claudia Wilmore, who were completely missed out somehow! I will put you in and ask Jeremy Sandford to post the results on the club website soon.
Thanks again to everyone for their support and energy and I hope to see you all on the water!
The Walley Cup will be re-sailed in September when the weather improves!
Rupert Snow.

Due to circumstances beyond the club’s control we have had to cancel this event. 

Sorry for any disappointment this may cause. 

Instead we will run an August Bank Holiday Mini series over the three days on a similar format as the normal Pico series so we can all spend plenty of race time on the water having loads of fun as always. 

Now what we do need is a sponsor, so if anyone has any suggestions as to offering a cup of some sort then do please let Mike Thomason know and we can make this an annual event. 

Laser Centre have been asked to let us know about some special deals on race sails, kickers and toestraps and details to follow once received.
