EAORA Janes Cup and Thames Estuary Weekend

chriswah — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 12:11:19 +0000

This weekend is the Medway EAORA races, the Janes cup from Burnham On Crouch to Medway on Saturday, weather at the moment is not looking that great to be honest – Westerly 12 knots dropping all day to nothing in the evening.

The Sunday is the Thames Estuary race, from Medway to Burnham On Crouch. At the moment the weather is looking a bit wetter than the Saturday, but at least with more wind – NNE 9-15knots.

The Crew for the Weekend is – Tony, Chuffy, Iona, Graham, Bondi-Steve, Tim and Chriswah.

Amazon Back in the Water

Had an email from Tony last night to say that Amazon was in the slings at the Marina. As I write this she is probably being put in the water.

So this weekend is the first EAORA race weekend of the season, Ralph Herring Trophy and Pattison Cup, this year the course is from Burnham on Crouch to Mersea on Saturday and Mersea to Burnham on the Sunday, so no delivery trip back on Sunday!!

Forecast at the moment is looking like ENE 10 knots for the weekend.

EAORA

Only five weeks to the first EAORA race and fitting out is just starting. It’s still really cold and there loads of work to do, so the more help the better. Hope to see you all there. Tony

Ramsgate SailEAST

Just got back from the Ramsgate SailEAST. Different format than usual rather than 2 races on Saturday and 1 on Sunday, all 3 races were on Saturday.

We had a great day on the water, with only one of two incidents (managed to do some trawling with the kite – didn’t catch any fish though!), great weather – nice and sunny with about 17knots of breeze all day.

Crew consisted of Ton and Chuffy, Dave Mallet, Me, Ian, Catherine and our local knowledge Janey Mann.

Left the boat early this morning for a quick trip back to Burnham via car while Tony and Catherine sailed Amazon back to Burnham.

Next race on the calendar is Burnham Week.

Dabchicks Sail East

So this weekend is the final SailEAST event at the Dabchicks Sailing Club at West Mersea, always a great party. There will be plenty of MGC and Dancing on the ceiling.

Tony is taking the boat round on Thursday. Hope to see you all there.
