2010 Powerboat Race Calendar

Has no-one spotted the (deliberate) mistake on it yet ?

Notwithstanding that -

It certainly is GOOD to have a powerboat calendar again, after many years without (Remember those Beken ones ?).
"Well Done" to Dave & Carolyn for all your efforts in producing this calendar - can it be an annual thing, not just a one-off please ?

Thank you very much to all "The Snappers" who contributed their pix, & to all involved.

I think this will be an annual production. Maybe we include snaps from the many races that are taking place throughout the UK in 2011 !!!!!

The only problem we had with the calender was because of it size, it does not fit in letterboxes and although most postmen leave a note, there have been three who just think 'sod it'. Anyway thanks for the kind words and a very Happy Christmas and successful New Year from D&C at raceboatinternational.com

Actually our postie is pretty good as they are for ever leaving them nextdoor and vice-versa. I just think that this one has been fated what with the weather and everything. Hopefully it'll arrive soon as really looking forward to it and then I'll have a

Miss Daisy March

Great calendar and very pleased to be March 'centerfold'. Out of interest what is most interesting/worrying about the shot is that we were at the back of the fleet by this time and were only making about 25 knots. The next shot we are completely clear of the water. I had to do 40+ knots last time to get 'airborne' shots.
Well done to the cameraman and of course thanks to the publishers
cheers Jonathan
(March 2011 for the next 12 months in this household!)
