Great idea, would love to see loads of sports boat flying about, so is just british boats as in the traditional sense, ie: Ring, Phantom, Marshan, Fletcher etc or any british built sports boat.
I think it it would be cool to see all boats that are not a common sight too like sharpe, pacer, driver etc. a salute to all the people that have had a go in the past.

I don't think there'll be a bouncer refusing entry to boats that don't *conform*.

It's just going to be a meeting/rally for us nobbers to have a laugh & chew the fat, 'intended' for boats like you mention. I'm sure we'd see all sorts, maybe even some foreign rubbish.

If you still had the Seahorse, we could have held it in LA!

That would have been a scream

All messing about aside. If we can get enough people put their hands up for this, I'll look into booking somewhere like the folly. We could reserve the pontoon and get Andy to organise chille, or BBQ or whatever, much like we do for the Poker Runs. Take the place over. (and scare then feckin Yotties off)

1st Overall 1996

Aboard Cliffie's 'Seahorse' with Johnny 'blanch' Burden.

Must have been a terrible fire!

And a couple on the water that day.

We were officially 'shorts N tee shirt racing team' back then.

Do you have a picture? The Mk1 of 1979 is rare, so it would be good see one of those at the bash.

Does anyone have a 2009 racing calendar yet?

I'm thinking maybe between the Harwich event at the beginning of August, and Cowes at the end of August? Must be a free weekend there somewhere.

I'll talk to Andy at the Folly about food options and availability, and 'could' see if Gill fancies letting us meet back at Drivers in the evening for a sausage in a bun or similar and some music. Of course, she might tell me to take a hyke.

In order to book the Folly, we would have to confirm numbers, and pre-pay. I'd guess at about 7-8 quid per head, but the upside of commiting early is that we should be able to reserve the pontoon, which is a must, as any Drivers Wharf poker runner will tell you.
So if we can agree a date, and set up a paypal payment to collect the ticket dosh (I aint bankrolling it!) we can firm it up.
