Dear All,
For once GMYC can be positive about this Wednesday’s ALE event, which is definitely on and we look forward to a good response and a good turnout. The forecast is looking good with northerly winds, which is one of the best directions on our Abbey Meads Lake, blowing straight down the middle. So please come have some fun between 2 and 5 PM. As there is no doubt about the running of this event, there is no need to ring Roger on the morning of the event.
We look forward to seeing you!
We would also like to see you next Sunday 8th of July, as we have a visitor from Canada coming to sail with us. John Ball came to race his Marblehead in the first ‘radio Marblehead international’ at Gosport in 1975 when radio racing was in its infancy and he finished second. As there is no Marblehead sailing near him in Canada he is looking forward to racing them again. For those who might recognise his name, he is one of the world’s experts on racing rules and radio racing rules in particular. He has been nominated as the Regional Officer for North America to serve on the International Radio Sailing Association Executive Committee, where he will make a very good contribution to decisions that affect all of us at national level. You are most welcome to join us in our club race on Sunday, which starts at 10 AM.
Cheers, Roger
