 Topic: Symmetric Grand Prix...Posted: 06 Apr 05 at 9:52am |
|
For all those who intend to enter the Symmetric Grand Prix at Rutland on the 8th / 9th October this year, the entry form is now available on the FastSail site. If you'd like a bash at it (and who wouldn't) then please shout because I'm sure people will be looking for crew. I believe the 420's have a special trial invite this year as well. This will be a biggy. Big fleet, Big water and BIG FUN.....oh and bucket loads of prizes all through the fleet. So, get your entry in at www.fastsail.org , and also thanks to Y&Y for saying nice things about us at the dinghy show in the latest magazine. It's much appreciated by FastSail and its sponsors. Look forward to seeing y'all there

Not involved with fastsail but I'm sure theyll welcome people of all standards, and anyway you probably are quite good- jst trying to be modest!

I'd give it a go if I was you, probably vast variations within fleet abilities and you'd be able to learn off of the faster sailors at the event. |

As Harry and 49er said, it's for everybody. I'll be sailing my Osprey with my 13 year old son as crew. (Fortunately he's better at it than me). There will be the real hotshots there and there will be people who just do it for fun. Either way, everybody mixes, learns alot, and has a real fun weekend.

Just taken a peek at the entry form on www.fastsail.org and Laser 2 and 420 are invited classes this year. So either BYO and enjoy or volunteer for a crewing job. For any who say they are not good enough, ability is definitely a second place consideration for the SGP, it is about the rock stars mixing with the mere mortals and about getting to know people who sail like minded boats (even though they are all staunchly supportive of their own class). It was excellant fun last year, I am hoping to make there myself this year even in a non-sailing capacity..... Regards, Paul |
