Description:

Hi All,

Having met several new Parker Seal members this year we decided to go for an easy location with plenty of water all evening for the Parker Seal Rally in Poole Harbour.

Arne, is ideally situated with good access by water on the Saturday afternoon/evening on the 11th June. I have included a simple chart of how to access Arne as well as, areas to moor.

A couple of us will be pottering around in dinghies during the afternoon, so if you are unsure of where would be favourable to moor we will be on hand to help.

Format

  • Turn up Saturday (best before 12.30 or after 16.00)
  • Meet up on the shore about 18.00 bring own food (no BBQ’s on the shore please), it can be quite muddy by the waters edge.

If you do not have a dinghy to get ashore, don’t be put off the Parker Seal ‘Uber Taxis Service’ is always available

The tides are ideal to stay on your boat overnight or head back to your club later in the evening.

The whole rally is meeting each other, so if you do not fancy going the beach, please come along and we will come over to you for a chat in the dinghies.

Please let us know if you are interested in coming.

The PSSA is the class association for Parker and Seal lift keel yachts and other types of shallow draft yachts.
As an active, friendly club with almost 350 members, it organises rallies, social events and an annual race around the Isle of Wight.
Seals and Parkers are British-built yachts, ranging in length from 21' to 33', mostly with lifting keels. They started with the Seal 22 in 1970, built by John Baker, and followed by the Seal 28 and Super Seal 26. In 1981, Bill Parker took over the range and added the Parker 21, Parker 27 and Parker 31. These then evolved into a high-quality range of cruiser-racers built by Parker Lift-Keel Yachts - the trailable Parker 235, the Parker 285 and the Parker 335. In 2009, Parker Lift-Keel yachts ceased trading.
