2011 Laser Pico Nationals – Cancelled
Due to circumstances beyond the club’s control we have had to cancel this event.
Sorry for any disappointment this may cause.
Instead we will run an August Bank Holiday Mini series over the three days on a similar format as the normal Pico series so we can all spend plenty of race time on the water having loads of fun as always.
Now what we do need is a sponsor, so if anyone has any suggestions as to offering a cup of some sort then do please let Mike Thomason know and we can make this an annual event.
Laser Centre have been asked to let us know about some special deals on race sails, kickers and toestraps and details to follow once received.

Sprinters at Seasalter – 16/17th July
Posted on behalf of Steve Healy
Well done to the magnificent seven who braved the howling winds at Seasalter last week, we had 18 – 38 mph winds on the first day, offshore with flat water, cat course, absolutely adrenalin fuelled thumping fun.
Especially well done to Martin Ellis for his 3rd place overall, to Howard Hawkes for his 3rd place on race 1 and also to Gary Burrows and Keith Persin for 6th and 7th on race 3 ( top end of F7).
All in all a great show by the Thorpe Bay Sprinters – well done to all!

Lost & Found Musto Boots………………………………………..
Published on behalf of Nick Gotgrove
Lost Musto Sailing Boots.
Hi everyone.
On returning home after sailing on Sunday evening , I realised that I had picked up a pair of Musto black soft soled sailing boots
(catalogue No: FS 0020) by mistake from the gents changing rooms ,
This was in the rack area immediately ahead of the shower area exit, about half way down, and would have been on Sunday 10 th of July about 6/ 8 pm ish .
(Or just possibly picked up from seasafe 5 during the water skiing on Mulberry afternoon, although I think this is now unlikely. )
Consequently someone mistakenly has my missing my pair which are also Musto size 10/11 (catalogue No: FS 0010) with the harder white soles, narrow grip type. (I have checked the lost property box / changing room etc and are not there.)
These were a family gift, and I would very much like these returned .If you have them, please get in touch with me to swap on 01702 480087 or 07740 839254.
Kind regards Nick Cotgrove
