Records week is very much dependent on the weather. Last year was absolutely brilliant and every class of boat from Circuit and Offshore was able to run at virtually any time of the day ( Monday- Thursday) but the Friday was totally different, gale force winds and offshore boats only.
If you can afford the time and the money spend the week there!!! The social aspect is very good!!!
We're taking the GT30 up this year for Ben to run. It is the same hull as the JT250 but running to a higher weight limit and a bigger engine.

Never been to records week, but I may be able to arrange some business up norf which would coincide quite nicely.
Anyone clues on the 'something interesting'?

It's always interesting, but what is being referred to is unlikely to happen this year.
