drivers is always a good event but lack of entries saw it cancelled last year but a few boats turned up for the fun run to Gunwharf quay last year. the party was a good laugh too. hopefully an event of some description will happen its just about who is going to enter.
GB poker runs are here but again its all about interest, and i mean genuine interest

I've got a crew that will commit to Guernsey in June if the weather allows a crossing, what would be even better is if another boat or two would be able to commit also from a safety perspective. Any takers?

im sure an unofficial day out could be arranged if peeps just want to meet up and go for a blast, to do an event will mean event insurance.... tis a sticky area.

It's only a case of a suggested date, blast out there, BBQ and beer after. We can't help it if a load of boats all go the same direction! ;-)

I have spoken with Diablo who is organising and he's hoping for a good turn out.
