Monster fans We now have more than 15 minutes daylight per day up here in Scotland, and thaughts turn to the summer.... The Loch Ness Monster Race is PROVISIONALLY booked in for English Bank Holiday weekend, to be run on Saturday 25th August, with Sunday 26th in reserve. the 2004 Inaugural race was a roaring success, largely down to the support from the English sailors that committed to the travelling for this new event. Having proved it's a belter, we want to double the numbers, and make this a race to be reckoned with. We are in negotiations with a title sponsor, and once this is concluded (fingers crossed) there will be an announcement here and on catamaran.co.uk shortly. The race is run from a field in Dores, right next to the pub. The field in which the 'Rock Ness' concert is held. Once we make a formal annnouncement, we will be looking to confirm numbers to ensure the rescue facilites are up to scratch. Just to whet the appetite...! If you are interested in sponsoring / supporting this event, let me know! Having to import everything, including a host club and rescue facilities takes some doing! |

Glad you're back. We need a bit of sanity in this forum.... or maybe a stronger prescription.

The Loch Ness Monster Race is definitely not happening this year, but will
happen in August 2007. Time and sponsorship have meant that a definitive "go" wold be too late for people's already busy calendars. The Uniqueness of the Loch Ness Race is not just the fantastic course, challlenge and scenery, but its remoteness, and as such, everything is imported, including a host Club! This includes all rescue facilities as well. 2007 plans are now in their infancy, with Peterhead Sailing Club noting interest in repeating their excellent Race Management of 2004. The Race requires some external funding to cover the extra costs of importing a complete management team and all rescue facilities, the nearest Sailing / Yacht Club being a fair distance away. Should anyone wish to tentatively put their name to this event, or assist in any way, we would be delighted to hear from you, and can send a full information pack based on the epic 2004 Race. Please contact Richie Furber or Chris Browning of SNECCA for information secretary@snecca.org.uk Edited by Doctor Clifford |
