Just a brief resume of the past couple of weeks at the pool.
Sunday sail 29th 13 members present at the pool, usual crowd nothing to report other than John for bringing more Port, to drink & warm us on a cold day.
Sunday sail 5th Feb 11 members present again cold but dry had practice 500 race and fixed a larger better seat in Tigger. No photos but much good banter.
Sunday sail 12th Feb cold, windy & wet day so called off scheduled 500 race.
Tuesday 14th meeting CANCELLED till 2nd Tuesday in March. “Happy Valentines Day”
Sunday 19th general sail for all types of boat and sailor, as usual. + official scoring 500 race (2) to be held on its normal Sunday, 1st race 10.30 & 11.15 ish weather permitting.
Its staying light now till 5.30 pm we should start looking to get a couple or more of night sails with lights perhaps starting Feb 28th if interested? its usually a hoot!
I hear the pool level maybe being kept low whilst drainage work continues on the dam, this should give us decent access for a while longer.
I also hear news that another model boat club is starting at Aldridge, Ex Sandwell members, might enable an inter club Club 500 race in the Summer if we are interested?
For info, the paddles for Tigger have been fixed & i`ve fashioned a pole with hook to make retrieving the buoys less dangerous.
