TOPIC:

Nottingham SC will be hosting our Albacore Open meeting on Sunday 18th Sept, 3 races starting around 11am as in previous years. We have had a lot of interest this year, especially as our recently crowned National Champions Judy and Paul Armstrong and ex-member Matt Metcalfe Smith have very generously offered to spend Saturday 17th on an informal tuning / training event at the Club. Come along late morning if you would like some free coaching, and you can take part as visitors in our Saturday afternoon race to see if any of it sunk in.
We can make arrangements for people to camp in the dinghy park, or there is a huge camp site across the road and B&Bs a mile or so away.
Entry fee £10 to include Roger Poat's now legendary light curry lunch with veggie option, and to cover (mainly liquid) prizes.
If anyone wants to come but needs a crew we can find competent volunteers but please let me know here or on Facebook asap if you do.
Hope to see you soon
Steve

I'll be there along with my Aussie niece as my crew. Looking forward to it.

Thanks to all our visitors for making this the best attended Alb Open we have held to date, especially Judy and Paul for their help and encouragement with older boats on the Saturday. A report is being written, in the meantime the results can be seen here:
