Netley Nationals - what a fab weekend

Post by Charles »

As I've just got home after a 5hr drive I'm winding down with a glass or 3 of port & thought I'd say

THANKS

to NSC for a great championship, and especially to Rob for welcoming everyone and even more especially providing the girlie crews with local girlie knowledge... next time we come I suspect playing in the woods, park & balancing on bows will be substituted for chatting up unsuspecting boys at the bar, or taking a walk on the wild side in some wave piercing, adrenalin rush machine !!! :wink:

The family atmosphere is something we all enjoy, even at the "near" events (Nick's phrase... Pwllheli is near for me !!!) and NSC certainly provided that. Rob, we expect you to bring some competition for Fenella to Pwllheli, 18's - pah - a fleet of 15's is what the Bowen's need.

Hope we can get this year's & some more 2-ups to Pwllheil next year for more fun (so Daddy's can fiddle about with their boats in peace) !!!

Thanks Charles. We had a great weekend too! In the absence of another way of contacting you, did you leave Elenya's buoyancy aid down here? We may have found it!

So here is a slightly shorterned version of one of the race reports.

A full version of this report will be posted on this website shortly.

A more accomplished literary work from a 2-up perspective by Charles Watson makes an interesting read but you will have to wait for the magazine to read it. watch this space folks................ :wink:
