Sailing a National 12 at Easter

Published by under Racing

Easter is in couple of weeks time and I am looking of a crew for the Easter weekend. My normal crew (Sue) is on holiday then so if any body would like to crew in the front end of a National 12 please give me a call on 01702 205297 . Are any of the cadets who crewed in the National 12 championship last year interested? You will need to be very agile and light. Steve Le Grys
