Buoys

Postby Dreadnought » March 4th, 2016, 10:46 pm

The buoys are due to go out on Tuesday morning.

Could we have some help getting them onto the beach at 3.15pm on Sunday please?

Thanks to the few members that got the buoys on to the beach, I am so sorry that I couldn't help as I am in the middle of a home move. It would be really good to see new members helping. Which is something that doesn't often happen.

I think we should wear the old ones out first.

Regarding Pip's new mast float, will he be sailing on a different handicap this year? with that amount of windage :lol:

He's going to be tough to beat downwind.

I need something to offset my weight disadvantage compared to all you light weights, besides I'm planning on spending most of the season climbing back on board :lol:
