Nationals 2008
I hope you have all had a restful winter break from sailing but are now all looking forward to the new season.

Now is the time to start thinking about the Nationals this year – getting your holiday planned, accommodation arranged etc. The Nationals will be at Lymington SC this year on Sat 5th and Sun 6th July, with a warm up cruise or practice race on the Friday. Peter, the children and myself will be there taking part on Friday. Those of you who were there last year will know that our current champion Mike Beggs will be the race officer this year so we are guaranteed a new champion (I am just about to order the trophies!). Like last year it will be a fun family weekend with lots of competitive sailing thrown in!. There will also be other classes racing at the same time so we are sure to have lots of boats on the water and some lively evening entertainment. Those of you who have visited Lymington in the past will know just what a lovely place it is.

The NOR and other information will be available shortly on the forum and I will also be sending out entry forms to everyone in mid March when I send out the association renewal notices. Similar to last year, the first few entries will have their entry fee refunded at the event. So make a date in your diaries and keep an eye out for the entry form and NOR which will be available on the forum and in the post quite soon.

I look forward to seeing LOTS of you in July.

Happy Sailing

Sandy
