Cherbourg Race postponed...

Due to the inclement weather forecast mid-channel over the weekend we have decided to postpone the Cherbourg race until later in the year. The suggested new date is the weekend of 30/31^st July. The new date will require the approval of the sailing committee so please pencil it in for now and we'll confirm as soon as possible.

Cherbourg update...

All boats entered in the Cherbourg race should receive a personal email invitation from Port Chantereyne which must be produced on arrival to get the discounted berthing. If you haven't received yours by Wednesday night please let me know at the club or email me at zclassnews-sailing@yahoo.co.uk

Any boats not yet entered and wanting to join in the fun should let me know asap, and by Wednesday evening at the latest to take advantage of the discounted berthing.

There's a bit of information about things to do in Cherbourg on any Sunday on the Z Class News pages (http://castlecovezclass.blogspot.com/p/cherbourg-on-any-sunday.html) - the shops may be closed but there's still plenty to see and do and the latest forecast is looking ideal, fingers crossed it stays that way!

Cherbourg Race Sailing Instructions & Cherbourg Rally

The S.I.s for the Cherbourg Race can be downloaded from this link or you can pick up a copy in the clubhouse. Seven boats have confirmed their intention to race and several others are considering it - it would be really nice to make double figures! 

Any boats interested in joining us in Cherbourg, but cruising there rather than racing would be most welcome too. It would be fantastic to see a nice CCSC gathering there and of course you'll benefit from the discounted rate for the length of your stay. If that sounds like you please email me at zclassnews-sailing@yahoo.co.uk , give me a call on 01929 463265 or catch me at the club any race night.
