Powerboat 2011 Plymouth
Time is fast approaching and we are beginning to put the 2011 series of events together, I trust you are all up to speed with Allhallows event in April !! (if not please ask)
I am in the process of organising Plymouth Event 6th - 8th May, which is initially looking quite exciting with the possibility of a new (onshore) venue. (Courses same as last year)
It is difficult for us to gauge as to the viability of such an event without some feedback from all of you so would you PLEASE complete and return the attached form indicating wether you :
WILL BE, MIGHT BE or WONT BE attending !!

Just had a look on the RYA website and found where the calendar should be and it's not clickable - Where do I look for what classes are racing?

I still can't see if there will be a race for the marathon boats or not - just a date or am I missing something?
We are still considering going to Cork if the team want to do it. -anybody else?

If you want some strong advice from a person who's company sells multi-millions of web stuff each year...for low budget and very highly functional web capability get hosting from someone like UK2.net
Install wordpress (from wordpress.com an open source and easy to use content management system/blog) and then go to Themeforest.com and select some templates for around max 32 USD
That way you will all end up with professional websites with total content control (and delegated if you want) and also syndicate your social network channels including your YouTube, Flickr etc channels for all your club's videos and pics on the fly. You can even update from your iPhone if you have one! 
Gone are the days when you need to wait for "my friend's son is a wonder at web design" before he gets fed up and goes off to Uni to start drinking and etc etc...
Honestly it is really easy, powerful and professional!
PS sorry to the small web design industry as this is the sort of info they don't want their customers to know!

We signed up to race this season. However for various reasons we are not able to do every event, we never said we would do every event from the outset, not a question of us not sticking to our word! Looking to make the Torquay event our first race of the season.
