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
