Details:

This end of the season event is now very well established. The mixture of straight with varying departure time pursuit races puts lots of people in with a chance and shows the regular fleet leaders just what its like to sail in bad air and come through from the back. Of course being the Christmas Pudding race, some pudding features at lunch time to help keep the boats "flat" in the afternoon.

There will be a briefing at 11.00am with the first race at 11.30am. We aim to fit in three races with a difference: one regular race, then two pursuit races setting off in reverse personal handicap order - this puts everyone in with a chance of a prize. The entry fee is about £6, including lunch.

For those of you wanting to continue (or join) in the festivities, sailing will be followed by dinner.

Directions:

The club is 3 miles SE of Witney. From the A40 Oxford to Cheltenham road turn south at Witney on to the A415 (towards Abingdon). Follow this road for 2½ miles then turn left onto the B4449 (Stanton Harcourt). The club is 1 mile further on the right (signposted), just before the road bends to the left. If you come to a roundabout you’ve gone to far!
