The season starts a week tomorrow with the traditional Easter jaunt to Cherborug, racing there on Good Friday and back on Easter Sunday.
I've done it plenty of times on various boats but never on my own. This year Magic is doing some of the Cat3 offshore series as well as most of the inshore Cat4 passage races. I can hardly wait! We've picked a dodgy year though butt, an early Easter means it may well be rather chilly.
Hopefully we'll have a nice big field. The entry list should be out today or tomorrow.
For those who haven't raced JOG before, it's a cracking club. The offshore races tend to be a fair bit shorter than RORC, heading straight for a destination rather than farting around in circles. The parties are legendary too. Happilly, most owners and crews don't take themselves too seriously and there is a bonne home you don't find in a lot of other Solent Fleets.
