Dear all
I am writing this after another great weekend. The magnificent Thames A Raters paid their annual visit to Tamesis and wowed us with their grace and skill. Report below.
There is still time to sign up for the Ladies Night next Saturday £20 a head to be fed and entertained by the gents, who take enormous trouble and enjoyment. Ladies, if you have not already booked your place e mail Nicky Johnson on nickyjohnsontamesis@gmail.com.
Other upcoming events
Sunday 21st October – Trafalgar Trophy Handicap Pursuit Race. The slower classes start first so that that the faster classes aim to catch them up – everyone finishes at the same time. We are planning on running a shorter race for the Mirrors, Toppers, and juniors in the Laser 2000s. Times will be on the event page on the website.
Sunday 28th October – RNLI day. The local RNLI branch bring down their Christmas cards and goodies to sell to all. The first boat in each class race will receive a racing flag. All competitors are asked to contribute £5 to the RNLI when they enter.
Sunday 4th November – Trowlock Trophy Handicap Pursuit Race – more details to follow soon.
RYA Level 2 Powerboat course on Sundays -11th and 18th November – an opportuntiy to get the RYA qualification – useful when hiring out craft.
See you soon
