Steve Johnson has organised a coach for this event which takes place 26th February 2023.
This is INCLUSIVE for all members and cadets (Cadets must be accompanied by an adult)
The cost of £15 per person is for the return coach travel ONLY.
A list has been placed behind the bar at the clubhouse, however they cannot take any payments for this so an account has been set up to take payments.
Account details are behind the bar or if you PM Steve Johnson he can let you know.
Places are secured on receipt of payment on a first come first served basis. If I fail to fill the coach I will offer a full refund for the coach travel.

I’m looking for some help with Primo over the winter and the Sandhopper Launching Trolley. Can anyone help?
The list of jobs include.
Sanding, prepping and Antifouling Primo, Painting the floor internally with non slip & giving it a good clean up all round.
The trolley has a new jockey wheel, Pete replaced parts of the metal last year, but the wheel was broken at lift out this year. I have two new axles and wheels on the way for it, the old axles need cutting off (as the nuts are rotten) new holes drilled and the new axles fitting. We need to make sure that when they are fitted the black lifting frame fits over them, so we can get boats on an off of it easily so we can use it properly for launching and recovering. If you can help, please let me know.
Thanks
