Grafham Cat Open - final 40th Anniversary Summer TT!

Post by Jenny Ball »

Hi All

We are two weeks away from the Grafham Cat Open on 20th and 21st October - the final of our 40th Anniversary Summer TT series!

Briefing is at 11:55am
Scheduled start is 1pm - with three races back to back
2 course evening meal included in entry fee
Sunday = three races back to back

We have our own start - but its great to join a wider event with our fellow cat fleets. (So long as we outnumber them).

Grafham ask for online pre-entry - although this does not appear to be switched on yet. When it is - you will find it here: https://www.grafham.org/sailing-racing/ ... tings.html

Hoping to have 9 boats from Marconi - so look forward to seeing you all there.

Hi,
Any possibility that we can drop our boats off at Stewartby after the event in preparation for the first Winter TT on 3 November? :?:

No problem with leaving boats at Stewartby, the offer is open to everyone just let me know. Unfortunately I can't make Grafham this weekend, so please could you send me a message just before you leave there so I can ensure somebody is at the club to let you in.

Thanks
Andy
