Still requires some work but we are well on the way

Any comments/things that should be on there?

What about hosting a page that shows all of the classes that have been represented by people interested in the event. As in you can put up B14 Gbr 690 that way anyone who knows us may be a bit more persuaded to come for the banter and competition, might work epecially well with the youth classes, if they see there mates have shown interest then they may be more endowed to come. By showing what classes and competition are showing interest or even add a confirmed column for those who are definetly coming might encourage those looking for specific competition or challenges. Dunno if that all maes sense

Wouldn't an idea for the future be to include the Reggatta as points for appropriate series, such as SNECCA and the Scottish Skiff Series?

but in the same way Chris, if there isn't a huge interest shown early on the website then people might be put off attending. At least if its anonymous the organisers can spread the word that they have had LOADS of interest and more people might attend. Surely just spreading word via advertising and word of mouth between classes would be sufficient?

Reckon the fact that the race is linked to the Merrick's trust will generate quite a bit of interest in itself. Think that fact alone should generate more interest than any prizes given, classes provided for, etc, etc...

Will be attacking the class associations soon.....if anyone with the relevant contacts wants to either do the leg work or PM me then that would be great.  I think to make this successful we all need to do our bit and promote it within our respective classes?

I had thought (although I have no idea how to!) do a online registration think so that there would be a list of people entered but like you say Tim it could put people off if the list is small.

Thanks for all the positive comments so far.....shaping up for a great event

well Scottish SKiffs were told about the event before there calender was set in stone and opted not to come due to certain members not liking the venue therefore it was disregarded. Im sure you will see some of the guys from the skiffs there anyway, its just doesnt look like its one of the SSR events on their programme this year, shame really

it doesn't matter who I am , all i did was get the "wrong" inference from your submission after Bartys comments bout 49ers starting 3 days after oppies .

b14 will be 2 days

sorry got the py mixed up typo !

main thing is event goes ahead , shame skiffs r rubber earing it over a mix up at Scottish this year .

Its not the best of water , but , its a great venue otherwise , and with a big turnout should be an epic event .

 

I will be there ,
