Torquay Offshore
If anyone fancies chasing a few models around Torquay tomorrow we will be starting with the first boats away at 10am. we currently have 4 chase boats and 45 + models. Just like the real Cowes Torquay Cowes, this is the scale equivalent with Torquay Brixham Torquay. which will again be running from Torquay around Thatcher Rock & back to Torquay !!
If you want to come and help you need to be launched and reported in on Haldon Pier by approx 9:45am !! If you want to come and watch we will be there all day.
Bob

Thanks Bob...
I thought it was very impressive of the chase boats on the return leg running through all the dinghy yachts at 30 knots..

Yeh, a bit inconsiderate, 5 knots would have produced a much bigger wake, and then you might have had a couple of the feckers over!

If anyone is able to help with a chase boat or 2 !! We have 40+ entries so it would be good to have another couple of chase boats and maybe some spare drivers !!

Bob
