Safety
boats for the Cowes Torquay
Cowes |
|
|
|
|
We are in desperate need for
safety boats for the Cowes
Torquay Cowes race and the Cowes
Poole Cowes race in August.
We particularly need ten boats
between the Solent Bank Buoy
near Lymington and the Hurst
Narrows during the start on the
Saturday. We will also need
about five Jet Ski’s there as
well just for that period as we
need to ensure Joe Public are
not in that area as 70 boats run
through.
We will also need about ten
Safety Boats in Poole Bay for
that particular race together
with a couple of Mark Boats.
We have Torquay covered with the
kind help of the Royal Torbay
Yacht Club but we will need a
boat off of Portland Bill. I was
hoping that someone from the
Lyme Regis Powerboat Club might
help so if they see this message
can they please get in touch
with me.
Lastly, moorings in the North
Basin in Cowes this year will be
almost impossible, maybe room
for about 6 Safety Boats but
that's it as we have so many
race boats to look after so its
first come first served I'm
afraid. There will be room in
the South Basin however but we
can't afford to pay for that
unfortunately.
Anyone who is interested in
helping please email
Mike Lloyd. |
