Hooray.  The BOD sailing season is finally upon us and the omnipresent Mr Gritton and his Never Say Never crew will have some BOD competition at last!

Things get underway with a special Champagne Thursday Night Pursuit Race this Thursday 4 May starting from BSC from 19.00.  Please BSC to pick up this year’s pursuit start times from the BSC Hut before you go afloat as there have been some handicap changes.  The main Thursday Night Series will start on 11 May.

On Sunday 7 May we have a double bill with the Rotary Cup starting from the BSC line at 11.10 (BSC is running May Mugs class racing and we will be the final start as usual).  It will be a special pursuit style race of approx 90 minutes and special sailing instructions for this will be emailed to the owners shortly.  The race will be followed by an informal BOD Fleet lunch in the BSC Upstairs Lounge. Book in right away for lunch with Fiona on fiona.brown@fionabrown.com.

From the look of the number of boats in the boat park already we can expect a really good turnout in this our 90th anniversary year.

Can’t wait to see you all on the water!
