Last time I coached (29ers) at Leigh and Lowton someone had their wallet, phone, car keys and (as a result) their subaru impreza turbo stolen, I did say in the briefing about looking after your valueables... Also last year I was coaching (Lasers) at Datchet and someone had their brand new Audi TT stolen less than 24 hours after they had bought it ... so please do not leave keys in the changing rooms!

Yeh burnham area has gone down hill a little the sailing is still the same standard but at Corinthian (the top yacht club in the town - price wise) the oppies got burnt, further up river, our yacht got sabotaged, and a couple of waterfornt houses got trashed, but mostly its a good sport and things dont normaly go wrong on a grand scale.

we can come up with times when things have gone wrong, but these are such small number of occasions compared to thetotal number of times people have left boats/things about.

Reading your posts makes me feel sad.

I grew up in that area, and boats could be left just about anywhere, with all the gear on them,  nothing seemed to go missing,  lordy, I sound like me Dad now!!  but it is heart breaking when the odd few spoil our fun. Sailing relies on a certain amount of trust and this sort of thing angers me.    

My father sailed at Brandy Hole  and I sailed at Little Wakering Yatch Club.

Have very fond memories of Burnham Week.  

I hope you are able to track down your gear Shearwater1994

Yeah Shearwater 1994 we have had a few problems at clubs near Burnham, Did you hear about all the oppies that were burnt, by local youths.

I would put a notice at our club but i realy dont hink that it would do anything as we dont live that near burnham and the boats arent likely to be able to be sailed at our club.

fill in the 'event report' form on the website front page
and your message will go up on the main page for
ALL website users to see, and not the smaller
number of us that delve into the forum's. There are
often stolen messages there, i think.

hope you find it / them.
