Birkenhead Radio Sailing & Power Club
This Saturday’s IOM racing was called off due to a lack of wind which means we have only raced one of the three fixtures planned to date.
With that in mind, there will now be an extra event scheduled for New Years Eve (Saturday 31st December) with racing starting at the earlier time of 12 noon.
Entries for the last Marblehead event of the year (The RM “Santa Dash” Open Meeting on 17th December) are now into double figures, so a good turnout looks assured.
Our sailing secretary has just visited the lake and advises that it is frozen.
Racing has been cancelled today (26th November)
The RM “Santa Dash” Open Meeting takes place on 17th December this year.
Briefing will be at 10.15am, first race at 10.30am and no race will start after 4pm.
Tea and coffee will be available at the club, but bring your own food for lunch.
Please enter in advance by sending an email to Graham Elliott at elliottyachts@hotmail.co.uk
As usual, spread the word to anyone you think might be interested in attending.

Your committee would like to invite all club members to the AGM to be held on Saturday 19 November 2016 at 2.00pm at The Royal Mersey Yacht Club at Rock Ferry who have kindly agreed to host us again.

The club is the last development on the right as you go up Bedford Road East away from the Refreshment Room pub/restaurant.
Park on the road or, if you’re early, in the yard. Pass through the gates and the yard to find the clubhouse entrance (steps leading to a large blue door) on the far left.
The bar will be open from 1:30pm and sandwiches will be provided after the meeting.
We look forward to seeing you there.
Copies of the Agenda and Proposals documents are attached to this post in pdf format.
A reminder to everyone, if you are planning on attending the Strebor IOM Open this weekend, please email Graham Elliott with your entry.
If you know of any visitors who might want to attend, please let them know.
