Hello Bowmoor Swimmers and Sailors!

After a particularly quiet January and February, the first half term of 2025 has brought some much needed sunshine and double digit temperatures.  I'm more than ready for spring.

The annual RYA Dinghy and Watersports show is at Farnborough this weekend (link here, RYA members go free).  A great opportunity to get a deal on some much needed kit. Most of the people I've spoken with are planning to go on Saturday.

Supernova Open - March 1st
RS 300 and Byte Open - March 8th/9th
(12:30 start for club racing on the 9th)
