The Sling Lift will be undergoing some repairs starting on Wednesday 31st May. We hope to have it up and running by Monday 5th June or earlier, if we can.
The tractor will also be having some repairs done, and will be out of commission for the same period.
Wednesday: Race 5of the DHL Twilight series plus prizegiving. Start time 17:45. Forecast: gentle westerly, no cloud – plus moonlight for “afters”. Flat water – should be good. Not quite Miura weather though – again!
Saturday: Although no racing was originally planned for this week-end,
(Sailing Mgr’s brainstorm!!), a Round the Different Cans race is now planned to make up for almost two weeks of “no wind, no racing” – start 14:30. The forecast of a fresh north wester (meaning more flat water) plus a “course with a difference” (?????) should provide an enjoyable afternoon’s sailing. Be there!
