Burton 2010 - Rib appeal

Tim Gatti · 25 Oct 2009, 06:12

We are facing some costs challenges in mounting the Burton 2010 event. If anyone can help with provision of a rib (or two) min spec 5.8 metre / 60-70hp with or without RYA qualified skipper for the four days please let me know. Thanks. Tim (07790 615800)

Sorry Tim haven't got a rib, but would like to know which Sailing club we are at for the Nationals, Weymouth SC or Weymouth & Portland Sailing Acadamy, assuming it's not Castle Cove SC?

Simon - just to bring you and the membership up to date with how things are progressing...as I know everyone is keen to finalise their planning for next May.
The Burton Committee will be presenting a full report of their visit to Weymouth last weekend to the full NTOA Committee on Saturday. as scheduled.
It is our intention to confirm the venue and other details of the arrangements for the 2010 Burton event as soon as is practically possible after that.
Best wishes

Hi Jane and members
We had a very positive meeting on Saturday but still need to confirm some final details before an official announcement can be made. Hopefully shouldn't take too much longer. Thanks for your patience.
Best wishes
