I would just like to say a big thank you to Richard and Tracey Metcalf for doing a great job on the rescue on Saturday, there I was drifting fast into the land of the dinosaurs well past the coast guard station no beach for landing big waves lots of wind and the mast broken in two places, all this in a boat that weighs 27kg has the foils fixed in from the underside will not stay up right on its own and is very delicate.

Also a thank you to all the people that helped on the beach when we got back everybody was first class and this is what makes this sailing club a great place it was nice to see so many people walk out and help get the Moth onto the beach with out any damage.

Thank you !

At the prize giving yesterday I forgot one of the clubs unsung hero’s Tony Padbury.
Whilst we were all having a beer and chewing the fat over a brilliant weekends water base entertainment Tony, Janet and Liz were upstairs sorting out all the results.
So Tony and team please forgive me,and all of you who sailed next time you see them give them a pat on the back.
Regards Spratty
