No wind - must fish (off the opti!)

A special thank you to everyone who has been involved with running this event, especially Joanna and John Cobb. Your planning and constant communication with all Club Members has made this an extremely well run event and many people have commented how professionally organised it has been.
To those who have generourly contributed with their own time, sourcing equipment, supplies and prizes for the day - thank you.
To our sponsors - without your generous contribution we would not have been able to achieve so much and we are trully grateful for your continued support. All money that has been raised will be going towards the ongoing coaching expenses for our young up and coming sailors.
We urge all Club Members to support our sponsors where possible.
