I am delighted to say that we have one of the best entries that I can remember for our RIOW Race with 16 boats taking part - 6 in class 1 and 9 in class 2 so it should be a great day.
As shown on the entry forms we plan to celebrate completion of the race in the usual way at Ganders and I have agreed a limited choice menu for simplicity as we are taking the restaurant over. For those of you to whom I have already sent the menu please could you let me have your choices back asap if you have not already done so and for the rest please could you choose from the attached menu and let me know what you would like.
I have had to pay a £10/head deposit so please would you let me have a tenner on the night and settle the remainder of your bill direct. It would help the restaurant if this could be done 'per boat' rather than individually if possible.
Again, for those of you who requested entry forms early, there is a change to the mooring arrangements at Bembridge in that the marina do not accept bookings in advance at the height of the season - it is first come first served. You are very welcome to try the marina if you wish otherwise we plan to occupy our usual anchorage on the beach just to the left of the entrance.
Everyone who has requested it is booked in at Shepherds Wharf in Cowes on the Friday night - they have a note of skippers and boats and please settle mooring fees directly with them. I plan to go to the Dukes of York for supper in the evening and hope to see you there.
Any questions please let me know.
