Whitstable Week - Day 2

Posted: Tuesday, 30 July, 2019

Unfortunately the weather forecast was pretty spot on for Whitstable today. A windy morning, and a very windy afternoon put a stop to any Whitstable Week racing (even the Laser sailors felt it was too windy!). However some intrepid windsurfers did go out, and put on a good high speed show for the sailors on the decking.
Racing continues tomorrow from 2pm, and as we've lost a day, we're planning 3 races a day for Wednesday and Thursday. If you haven't already made it down and registered for the week, there's still time. You can join in for the rest of the week or just a day of sailing. Whitstable Week registration forms are available from the bar.
And don't forget the social events for the rest of the week. The traditional 'Laid Back Quiz' on Wednesday night is guarenteed to be popular, so get down early to get settled before the 7.30pm start. Don't forget to bring some brain food! On Thursday night the Commodore invites you to a cocktail reception - dress up or dress down to come along and enjoy some old classics and some new club creations (not just the usual club signature 'spicy-dickie'!). And Friday night is the famous finale party with prize giving, excellent 'indian platter' from the Canterbury Curry Club, and Andy Jackson's band 'SILT'!
**Correction to yesterday's post - It was Andrew Provan in a Spiderman rash vest who helped Fef right her boat, not Kevin in a Superman rash vest as previously reported. Apparently when you're upside down in the water, all superhero Laser sailors look the same!**
