BURTON WEEK ENTRIES

[angus]

You will have to come to Scotland Jane, Half our events are on the sea. Sea you there!;D

Jane - I can recommend Swanage Regatta. 12s hold a superb old trophy (with its own wooden storage box) from last year and would be great for 12s to retain it this year which would mean a degree of planning and commitment to make sure we were the biggest handicap class. Normally its the first weekend in August.

Thanks Mike - will put it in the diary for 2011.  In 2010 I will be in Looe competing (gulp!) at the Scorpion Nationals with my husband.  Nowhere near as comfortable as the 12!

[Arthur Henderson]

I've sent off my entry form and I'm looking forward to the champs already! I will be sailing my dad's boat, and I was wondering if I had to be a member of the class association to take part??
Thanks, Arthur

Entry Form posted today. Not sure what boat at this stage, it will either be a feeling foolish or the restored starfish.. It will depend on how long it takes it get the starfish on the water.

54 early entries for the P&B Free Jib Draw is absolutely brilliant and beats last year's early doors entry.  Could this mean we are on track to exceed the Thorpe Bay total of 80 boats?  Let's see if we can do it and make Weymouth a National Championships to remember. 

If you are thinking of entering - why wait? And if you have already entered why not see if you can encourage others to register for the event as well.  If you able to provide a 12 for others to sail or if you are short of a crew - post the details on the forum and we'll get something sorted for you. 
See the countdown on Jeremy's great Burton Week website for the number of days left before it all gets underway!

I look forward to seeing you all there

Re post 21 ...

Gareth - I think you'll find we completed the week last year, but just in several pieces!  Glad you'll be giving Flipside another go ...

Hi all
As some one new to the class all your history is new to me...
So i was looking at the entry form for Burton week and wondered... if we get a boat in time and decide to come down what boxes would i tick in the section regarding "subsidiary trophies"?
Cheers
Ian

Ian.
It is all down to age,sex,boat type,weight. If you go onto the Burton web page and look at 'Notice of Race' it explains what cat. each trophy is raced for. Burton week is a great event so come and enjoy yourself.

And the P&B jib...
Goes to Caroline Martin.
Thanks to P&B!

It's good to see that we are now up to 56 entries with a few more about to go in the post I hear with five weeks still to go.
I'm really hoping we can make it to 65+ boats by 29th May
So - if you are still thinking of entering please get your forms in soon - not only to ensure you get your seats secured for the Burton Dinner but also to help those organising the event. 
The budget is quite tight this year so it is really helpful for the Burton Committee to know how many entry fees to expect and how many Safety Boats and crews need to be provided and paid for (1 per 15 boats on the water).
Looking forward to another great Burton event!
Tim

[John Meadowcroft]

At this rate we may even get 65 entries by the 1st of May...........
