Mid May Sailing

What about that for a weekends sailing! The Social Saturday was well attended with members and non members (wanting to try sailing) enjoying the sunny weather and light winds (perfect for finding out more about boats). Sailing on Sunday saw the same blue skies, but with more of a breeze. All in all, pretty perfectIMG_0918 IMG_0877

Wayfarer for sale

For sale – Wayfarer

Philibuster W186.

A rare chance to own a fine old boat. Built by Moores in 1959, and first registered in 1960, Philibuster is largely still in the same configuration as when she left the workshop. Complete with wooden mast, original blocks, and no mod cons! She is also still remarkably competitive in club racing.

After 28 years ownership, we are reluctantly selling as we seldom use her now. So it is time to find someone else to love her, to care for her, and to enjoy her. It will be a tremendous wrench for us to see her go.

Complete with Banks Genoa and Jeckels mainsail, piggy back trailer, and (tired) over-boom cover. With original documentation.

All sensible offers considered.

Please contact Francis Trappes Lomax - 01603 811117.

 

Go Wild at Barton

Thanks to all those members who kindly volunteered to man the Norfolk Punt Club stand at the Go Wild at Barton event (especially the Khambattas for loaning Gamecock).  Despite the abject weather we had lots of interest for our social saturdays and the club. Don’t forget the first social saturday is being held on the 17th May and is being run by Tim Edmunds.
