Is the next meeting Burnham Week?

[moondancer]

Sounds like a fair number of people are doing Burnham Week - mainly class 6 over the first weekend. Could this be the next 'meeting' up? I am happy to take on crew on Moondancer from people not planning to enter their own boats. I am sure others are as well.

Who are all the confirmed entrants now ? and who wants to join in as crew?

Brian,
early meeting Dinner in Royal Corinthian Friday night, then the Barbecue at Rice & Coles Crane on the Sea Wall Saturday night.

Full Circle will be in sight of these two vantage points so just turn up or knock.

We are fully crewed for the event, in fact we could actually off load!!

Is the barbecue an East Coast Forum thingie or a Burnham Week for Racers thingie?

Kind of an east coast racing thingy... started a couple of years ago when Jim was whinging about his dirty bottom and I suggested he beach full circle and we all scrub, followed by BBQ on the sea wall.

Beyond Reason is entered in Class 6. What a hoot!

Fully crewed up for the bank holiday weekend, but possible 'vacancies' mid week and last weekend.

Some of my potential crew for these two periods are in negotiations with their employers to get the time off. When they finally make their minds up I will know where I am.

So I may well still need crew, but can't be certain yet.

Although held during Burnham Week, last year we had invited MOBOs from the Medway. But they are famous for not turniong up for their own events so we didn't see them.

If you are coming round to Burnham, there will be spaces on Rice & Coles moorings, its a great walk for the dog.....

Oi....Dont give away too many moorings at R&C.....


Like the Medway lot.....


I may....




or.....

Bernie - I'm often vacant mid-week.

Some say I'm vacant most of the time /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[eastcoastbernie]

I have a friend's mobile number recorded in my phone book. By his name I have written 'very rarely switched on'.

I will now add 'often vacant' by yours!

/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Does that mean I can count you in as a definate maybe? For midweek Burnham that is?

 

[DRANNIE]

well I'll be there for the weekends racing in class 6. I'm hoping that I might do better than last year when I was thwarted by short lift keel, no wind and general incompetence.

Any idea how much the rice & cole deep moorings are? I would be relient on the water taxi as I don't have a dinghy. I was in the yacht harbour last year which worked out quite pricey.

 

[FullCircle]

Sshh. Free.

I can loan you a dinghy for the week. 8ft with a Seagull on the back. Luckily, it comes with oars too.

 

[lenseman]

Much more fun to start on starboard tack and when your amongst them, hoist flag 'D' and then in very short order, change the hoist to flag 'U' and when they are totally confused, drop anchor! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[moondancer]

Jim,

What do we have to do to book up for the Friday dinner? Do we go through you as one of these blue flag wavers?

Wanna buy some tickets Guv? I get 'em from the little fat bloke wiv the Johnno.

I will book a table.

 

[DRANNIE]

excellent, thanks, sounds like it might be a plan. I'll PM you nearer the time. This is shaping up to be a good weekend.
