It was a hard weekend for some.

Four racers in Hospital? Several destroyed boats. You could have sworn it was rough by the carnage!

Yes I was rather tired after skiing, so caught up on some needed beauty sleep (thought I would put it before anyone one else did).

Ramsgate was an exellent event well done to all those involved in organising such a good venue, and teaming up with the powerboaters.

As Rob stated the sea state on the Saturday was very rough with a huge swell rolling in, I think that I am correct in saying that everyone took a fall during Saturday's race, which for a couple of the skiier's does not happen very often at all.

Sunday's conditions were a little calmer but still by no means flat, Havey Robinson had a very good race in Formula 2 but was unlucky to be pipp'd to the finish line by team 'Apache' after taking a tumble on the same corner that caught out so many skiier's the day before.

Has anyone got any photo's they can post?

I think it just caught them out, especially doing victory rolls after taking the chequered.

I is suprising how quick the conditions can change, we got our K400 & E9000 races done in relatively good conditions both days, and the K250s weren't effected by them as they ran inside the harbour!!!

Diamond Race, fantastic weekend, great atmosphere. Ramsgate, enjoyed the spectacle of both the Powerboating and Skiracing - the water on Saturday was very challenging.

Nice to see the course was much closer for the spectators on Sunday, but must admit - I am a pit p*ssed off as some gits stole both our boy's BMX Stunt Bikes as we watched Sunday's skirace.

Ramsgate is off of my Christmas list. FOREVER !!

Anyone got any cycles due for a boot sale?

Gissa shout.

<here's what I would like to do to whoever took the bikes>

They will get theirs in the end, what goes round comes round.
