THE WINTER SERIES IS WELL AND TRULY HERE
........plus the Laying-Up Dinner (house full sign on this one)
This coming Sunday 20 October we hold the second race in the Winter Series, starting at 11:00, and things start to hot-up (although not necessarily the weather!). And remember that, this Wednesday evening, from 19:30 the Club is open for a drink and a chat, as it is every Wednesday.
Oh yes, and the Laying-Up Dinner and Trophy Presentation is this Saturday 19 October and is a complete sell-out!
There is always so much going on down at the Gunfleet.
Latest Reports
Gunfleet Sailing Club held the first race in its Winter Series on Sunday 13 October 2024 and the weather greeted the members accordingly. A west/north-westerly breeze, combined with a lack of sunshine, resulted in a sharp morning as competitors rigged their boats.
Gunfleet Sailing Club’s 2024 Cadet Splash took part over the three days of 27 – 29 August and was heralded a great success by all those taking part – both the participants and the helpers. The weather was wall to wall sunshine, with a sailors’ wind throughout, although occasionally somewhat trying. Two teams were chosen – The Frankie’s Stein, and the Five Part Turk’s Head; both names just rolling off the tongue!! Our Cadet Officer Jo ran the whole thing, with a bunch of parent helpers, and a full and varied programme got underway.
Gunfleet Sailing Club held its annual Regatta, sponsored by Orsted Energy and Odiin Recruitment, over the weekend of 20 & 21 July with twenty-eight boats taking part in an offshore wind and a mixture of sunshine and clouds.
2024 Regatta Slideshow
Photographer Colin Waddell has kindly put together a slideshow of the 2024 Gunfleet Regatta weekend (interspersed with bits of film). We'll leave it here on the front page for now and archive it with the main report later.
