CHANGING PLAYGROUND?


Dear friends,



Special invitation made to the SB3 Owners by ONE15 Marina to the inaugural One15 Southern Islands Challenge on 25 and 26 Sep 2010.


The racing area will be over in front of East Coast beach.
ONE15 said they would love the SB3 fleet to be there, and they would be happy to help with the boat transfers by towing (I presume it's cheaper, safer and faster to put them on a truck trailer, to be discussed...), and even transporting the trailers over from RM, so that the boats can be dry stored over the weekends.

We probably need to arrange for a rib helping the boats to enter/leave the Marina as there is a lot of current there.


Who is up?


++

ONE°15 Marina Club will be the organizer for the Regatta, together with the Pesta Sukan Regatta on the 18th and 19th September 2010. We will be having a skipper’s briefing on Friday, 17th September 2010, followed by welcome drinks to allow all participants to enjoy the spirit of pre-race celebrationsJ


The Club will be offering free berthing for the weekend before, during and the weekend after.


We would be very happy to accommodate your needs and assist in the logistical preparations and transfer of the boats over to ONE°15 Marina Club.


Kindly advice.


Best Regards, Andrew

WESTER CIRCUIT 2010 - DAY 1


Despite not being able to race on a seperate course as it was expected, a last minute lobbying on the RO team (thanks Jono) enabled us to have 4 windward/leewards in one day with only 2 turns instead of 3. The conditions were consistent enough and we hope for the same wind (or more) next week end.

Provisional results after day 1 (Su Me did not race but will be there 21/22 Aug)

In the meantime,
1- The committee would like to have a 1 hour meeting with all available Owners just after Day 1 of the WCSR. We would like to discuss about our program till the end of the year and to report about a meeting we had recently with the management of Raffles Marina.
2- Could you please send me the name of the new Owner of Dutchess so that we can update our database? Thanks.
3-If you need crew, just let us know. We have received quite a lot of interest from people who want to sail with us.
4- Hullabaloo is for sale as Jamie is relocating to China. Do not hesitate to spread the news and speak to Jamie if you know a potential buyer!
Looking forward to seeing you all next week end at RM,
Fab
