Hornets need crews this weekend, Association boat available to try

by Mike Owen 8 Jul 2015 14:50 BST 11-12 July 2015

There are at least three Hornet crews required this coming weekend at the River Exe Regatta hosted by Starcross YC, first race starting at 1pm. This must be one of the most enjoyable events in the calendar, with a major party organised for the Saturday night, in one of the best venues in the country.

In addition, the Hornet Class boat is available for trials/racing at Starcross this weekend, but will obviously need a helm as well! Note that regatta entries must be in by close of play Thursday this week, £20 for the Hornet.

If you are interested, please contact Mike Owen via the Class contact details on our website www.hornet.org.uk, or our facebook group 'Hornet Sailing UK'.
