We set the dates of events for this year.
As planned, we launched around 10:30 and got to the raft with the new metal
work.
We managed to fit 10 of the twelve uprights, all three frames and the
panels for the north wall and both frames and two of three panels for the east
wall.
The south wall (facing the harbour office, has its new uprights fitted
and joined to the bus shelter.
As for the west wall with the barbeque, Richard
cut off the last of the old mounting brackets. It turned into a longish day
as we didn't recover until gone 5 pm. Thanks to Andrew, Chris, Duncan, Ed, Lyn,
Nigel, Richard and Sadie who turned up and helped out for the whole day.
A
handful of pictures from the day are here:
We launched around 10:30. I took the remaining frames and uprights and Richard
took all 7 of the panels on his boat. It was just Helen. Richard and I for most
of the day. Edd and Paula turned up and helped fit the panels later on. We recovered
just gone 5 pm.
Jobs done
Richard, Sadie and myself launched from Northney at 10:00 taking all the
spare floorboards and various tools.
While Richard and I worked on the floorboards
and hatch, Sadie did a great job using a deck brush and bucket around the outside.
Ran
out of time and tide to finish scrubbing and there remain a couple of bits that
will get slippery when wet, please feel free to have a go at these if you are
out over the next few days. Recovered around 15:30.
Finished the following
jobs:
Despite unpromising weather, we held the competition in what turned out to
be pretty challenging conditions.
In moderate chop Richard got a new club
record on mono of 34 wakes in 30 seconds, beating the previous 31 set by Graeme
in 2015.
In the men's event, Olly and Nigel both made the most of the new
1.5 points/wake for two skis with 24 crossings giving them joint first place
with 36 points.
In the woman's event, Sadie managed 14 crossings on a pair
getting 21 points and taking the win.
Pictures from the competition are now in the Gallery.

We decided the dates and events taking place during the year.
As planned a group of members went out on the 19th of April and fitted the last
of the fendering and scrubbed down, scraped off the loose paint and put a couple
of coats of blue paint on the raft. The observant amongst you will notice a
slightly darker blue was used as the Teamac Metalastic Blue we've been using
since the raft was built is no longer available. On May 16th, Ed and I took out a pressure washer and cleaned off as
many of the boards on the west side (facing the Portsmouth outdoor center) as we
could until a mechanical failure stopped play. There remained a small section of boards in the south west corner that have not been
cleaned and remain very slippery especially when wet. On May 30th, Ed and I went out and repaired four broken floorboards. On June 9th, Phil replaced the barbeque table top, which had been looking
pretty sorry for itself. General meeting to discuss developments. David, our SBDA Principle took 5 members though their theory course and exam.
Congratulations to all five successful candidates. Practical tests and will
occur over the next few weeks. This was open to all members. Date and venue to be determined. The formal part of the

advised of the venue by now. The AGM is open to all members, please come along and support YOUR club. The
