Filey SC - Great venue

All,

Just got back from our nationals at Filey SC. There will be a report soon on the Musto Skiff site.

There are many things that make a great event but one of the key ingredients is the effort and welcome that the home club makes for the visitors.

I have been to many clubs in my time but Filey sets the new benchmark in effort and welcome for me ... hats off to Filey and a bit thanks from the MPSCA

If your class is looking for a venue for a future championships I would recommend them highly.

They also have an regatta every year that is very well attened.

regards,

Rick

I worry what you guys get up to in the showers at Combs

 

Filey is ace! If there's one open event to do every year it's their regatta in July. Fantastic place to sail.

The club house changing and showering fertilities are a bit pants tho but i agree there effort as a club was fantastic. The club house may not be the ritz but the facilities were more than capable of coping with our 47 sailors; they key for me is the welcome presented by the host club and the quaility of the racing they can provide. On that measure the club did an excellent job. Rick

like anyone been to mounts bay or SCYC recently? both those buidlings are perhaps overdue a refresh in the facilities depatments, and yet they'd both rate as ace clubs for sailing waters /scenery/beach etc...

possibly the friendliest ever club is Broadstairs in kent...the welcome there is fantastic, beers and curries are pretty good too.
