Grafham Cat Open / Nationals entry opens tomorrow!

[Jenny Ball]

The online entry for the Grafham Cat Open - also our Nationals - opens tomorrow - Wed 30th September.

PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR ENTRY as soon as possible. Entries to the overall event are restricted and the event is open to various cat fleets, as normal. So if you don’t enter quickly, an A class or Catapult will take your place and we can’t have that.

Notice of Race is already up on the Grafham website for details of the event.

Link to entries is:

For any night owls, bookings are open so you can register now. Be sure to select the Sprint 15 entry (£55) not the singlehanded option, which is for other single handed classes.

I see we have 40 entries at the moment with just 22 spaces yet to fill. If you plan to take part you need to enter quickly

[Bob Carter]

Just 11 places left. All the "new" boats have entered except 2024 & 2027

[Bob Carter]

46 Sprint 15s entered. Just 4 places left for visitors so if you want to come enter now.....

[Brian Phipps]

Windsport class event support plan to be at the event more detail to follow.

GWSC boats are not included in the pre-entry limitations so I'll enter later..

Good show. If you enter that makes 50.
Just one place left for visitors so anyone else want to come?

Can 1589 be persuaded to put a standard rig on and not race round on their own?

I doubt it Liam plus there is the issue of Association Membership surely too?

[Liam]

If it is their first nationals then they get refund of £20 which is used to pay for a year's membership.

And they get a magazine.

We are now at an amazing 50 entries (visitors and locals) for the Nationals. I have emailed most of you a Registration Form. This is so we can get everything loaded up onto our website and also manage eligibility for prizes and also for any discounts (youth, first time entries).

If you have been sent one - please can you return it to me as soon as possible?

If you have entered via the GWSC website and not received a Registration email from me - please drop me a note at Jenny@sprint15.com as I probably don't have your latest contact details.

Keeping everything crossed ......

Hi everyone Windsport will be at Grafham for the full weekend providing spares and support to the class. Likely to arrive first thing on Saturday morning.

If you want any orders brought up to save on delivery costs, get you orders in by Monday. Select "I will collect" in the delivery options then mention the Grafham in the notes.

Hi Mark, I see that we are now at 48 entries. If you enter AND convince one other Grafham Sprint 15 to enter we would make 50, which gets us in the Y&Y's 50+ club. Do you know of any others you can lean on?

I've entered into the weekend's floating which looking at the forecast will be a challenge!
