Hi Rich
Sorry for the delay - just sorting this for today. Things were always going to be tight for the first month and a couple of distractions have left me a little behind! We've had an awesome number of nominations so far and I did an update late-March - see http://www.yachtsandyachting.com/news/168420/#GetOutAndSail-update . Remember you can nominate for any other months you want too! September has had the most nominations and June has had the least so far... Best Regards, Mark |

So which event gained sponsership in April? This is a great idea but has gone quiet since the initial launch.
I nominated an event that happened today, true grass routes sailing, Feva, Laser Radial, Topper and Teras. 35 boats turned up and managed 4 races in gusty conditions, from Outer London RYA sailing centres. For some of these kids it was the first event away from their home centre. |

Can we have some of the nominations posted, It would pretty cool to vote for them. it might give these events a bit more publicity which in away is supporting the whole idea.

Yes, we will look at the top nominated events and each of the #GetOutAndSail partners will put forward which they think is the most worthy. Our aim behind this is to make sure that we don't keep supporting the same kind of event, or the same area - we want to spread the support as far and wide as possible! |

You can nominate any event between April and October - the cut off this month will be 24th March, but in future will be around 10 days before the month in question ends. We'll aim to notify the winning event about 3 days after nominations end to give enough notice to the event organisers. You get one nomination per person, per month. |

Can a event which is a worthy cause still win if it doesn't have the most nominations.

To clarify, an event that is in April can be nominated now and has to have the most nominations, ie submitted by the most number of people? If it is in April, when is the cutoff for nominations and when will you find out if you are the winning event? Do we get one vote for the entire competition or one per month? Sorry for the questions but I have a few in mind that would be good to get involved.
