The senior dinghy racing fleets, including Lasers, Fevas, 29ers, 420s, Aeros etc will be racing from a committee boat to the West of the river, starting at 1400, finishing about 1600. This will be mixture of PY and class racing depending on entries. The Silver Fleet Optimist and Tera Sport Fleets will be racing from a committee boat in Oxey Lake, starting at 1400 and finishing at about 1600. The Mariners will have an expedition to Moses Dock in Oxey Lake where they will be rewarded with ice creams! Starting 1430 from the slipway.

Any member who wishes to join in on a SUP, rowing boat or canoe is very welcome to enter and join the groups at Moses Dock in Oxey Lake. After Racing there will be tea and cake at the Club, with Harbour Games as well as games on the Green, along with live music, food, drink and entertainment until 2100. Obviously to make this all happen we will need a lot of helpers afloat, including ferry drivers, safety boat crews and crewed members RIBs, as well as volunteer helpers ashore, for such jobs as slipway marshals, tallies, issuing ice-creams at Moses Dock, setting up tea etc. At this stage it would help us enormously if you would complete the form via the link below to give us an indication of whether you plan to take part, and if so, how.
