Hot off the press - Quayside Windsurfers organise fun racing at Hunstanton from the 10th -12th July...

Quayside Windsurfers are organising a 'fun' challenge style racing event at this years Lifestyle 2009 event to be held from the 10th -12th July at Hunstanton Sailing Club. We will also have Demo kit on offer over the weekend and deals on kit on our stand to tempt you. Ray and Pete will be there with Severne and RRD confirmed, and North, Mistral & Fanatic to be confirmed.

Now before you say ' I'm not good enough' we want to stress this is a laid back, beach start style of race which ALL levels of sailor can enter using what ever kit they have. We plan to hold one race per day depending on the wind and there will be windsurf kit on offer as prizes. Pete Morris (QSW Team Rider and staff) will be bringing some friends from the SWA (student windsurf Association) to compete as well.

If this is successful then Quayside Windsurfers plan to bring the full UKWA Slalom Series band wagon to Norfolk for 2010.

If you would like to enter this event for FREE just email neil@quayside-windsurfers.com and we will include you in the pre race information.

Feel free to spread the word amongst your friends as we don't have everyone's email address.

So come on, join in and lets see if we can bring the Racing scene to our patch!!

The Pig returns from her Holidays...

The Pig is on Holiday...
The committee boat (the Pig ) went missing on Sat and was located by Rod & Nick Herbert from their aircraft on the RAF Holbeach Firing Range. Stuart M, David R and Ian H took the rib and secured the anchor prior to refloating it on the next suitable high tide.

Thanks also go to the Coast Guard Service who also mounted a search and also monitored the Ribs progress across the Wash.

Thanks also go to the RAF Range staff who made it possible for us to access the range during operations. We have assurance that the PIG will not be used for target practice during it stay.
