Unfortunately, I have been forced to cancel the Stratos Open on the 24th July due to a low turnout, 4 boats. This is of course dissapointing as some considerable planning had already taken place.
It would be good to find out why this particular event has not been well supported so that we can make certain other events attract the numbers that they deserve.
Doug, You are not as dissapointed as I am. Six boats would have made the event viable. I suppose there are lessons to be learnt but thank you for your support. At least I will be the first Stratos across the line at the weekend. Alister
This week end is for many of us the first week of school holidays and I rememember making a plea for events to take place outside of holiday periods at the last AGM. I am quite happy to spend as much time as I can sailing but my family find other activities more attractive. Still it is a real pity that no more than four entries were made. Thank you though for your efforts and please do not give up.
