GPA end of year do!

Everyone had an absolutely fantastic night last night at the Guernsey Powerboat Association end of year do at the Penninsular Hotel.

Huge thanks must go to Tony Fiore (Tony F on here) and his wife, Sarah for organising such an amazing event so well. Also thanks to Gina Dunn for making such a lovely job of setting the room up on the night.
Last but not least, thanks to Stavros Flatley for making the night so much more special with their phenominal performances. Richard and Tony took them out for a 'powerboat experience' on an Extreme 24 and a Cougar rib in 9ft waves round the back of herm. I'm told they said it was the experience of a lifetime.

It was a fantastic occasion for us to all let our hair down for the night and really give something back to all those who give so much helping us out all season.

Here's to another great year of powerboating in 2011

I'll start off with a few pics of the room setup, never did get a decent pic of all the trophies, most are hidden!
Big thanks to our 'best presented boat' Lets tango for being displayed outside

Room soon filled up with 120 odd people!!

Centre pieces were a chequered flag with the details on with a variety of knackered pistons as bases, gave an interesting conversation topic!
