Comet Duo Nationals and World Championships

Now this really made me chuckle. Very tongue in cheek, I am sure. Seven entries all from the home club sailing on a smallish lake near Kettering.

We have three Duos in our Club's hire fleet (Perfect for the job). If they run it next year and actually accept entries from other Clubs, it could be a great craic to attend, particularly as it is just down the road from us and it looks like a nice little Club.

If one of us struck lucky it might even get us a wildcard into the Endeavour.

It’s very very tongue in cheek. Lol It’s a running joke within the D-zero class and that there is a multiple comet duo world champion in their fleet . It’s an open meeting so i am sure there wouldn’t be a problem entering. 
Cransley is a lovely club full of friendly people, it where  my better half did a Comet open a few years ago . It’s only just off the A45 but you feel like your in the middle of the countryside .
It’s very similar feel to our club but with 4x the membership and 5x the amount of water  LOL

If it was just a little closer , I would join it in a minute .  Smile

Sorry to disappoint you but the Endeavour entries are for selected classes only, there are so many classes which hold a 'nationals' with 5 boats  Wink. The year I did it they got desperate because there were a lot of multiple class champions and big classes didn't reply so they got down to the Comet singlehander and the ISO but I reckon you'd need something really horrendous to happen before the Comet Duo got the call.....  Big smile

Sorry to disappoint you, but I don't think any of our lot, myself included, has any aspiration to do the Endeavour.....even if we did get the call.
