Hi all just a quick update.
Following what can only be described as a champaine sailing weekend it was awsome for me to see our Feva class not only on the water but racing and competing well done all who raced!!!
Just a few quick things to think about with the worlds looming and continued training.
Could all let me know if you think I have missed anyone as far as emails are concered as I lost the hard drive on my PC and have re generated the Feva email list but do not want to miss anyone.
If any of you are interested in attending either the Nationals or Inland Nationals please let me know and even confirm please if you are not going.
Also please email me if you are interested in buying new sails before the worlds and I will try to get a deal with RS but need to know by Friday 6th of May
Finally I am trying to put together an order for new boats prior to cadet week so all of you that are interested then please let me know as early as possible at the below email
Email [email protected]
Happy Sailing Steve
