Combined Harbour Regatta
Club members wishing to attend the Combined Harbour Regatta, this coming Saturday (9th) may wish to read the following Emil sent by PSC.
Coming up this weekend, Saturday will see the Combined Harbour Regatta which includes our friends from Clubs around the harbour – in particular Hardway and Fareham as part of the Portsmouth Harbour Interclub series along with the Victory and Squib classes and others from Portsmouth. As if this isn’t enough on its own to get everyone out sailing, the event this year also takes in Bart’s Bash, raising money for the Andrew Simpson Foundation. This is the only Bart’s Bash sailing event in Portsmouth this year and we have special dispensation to host it a week earlier than the other events around the world!
Please can I also ask that you sign up on the Bart’s Bash website (www.bartsbash.com ) – as I type this email, PSC is 10th on the list of Clubs – it would be great to get to the top by Saturday….. The Andrew Simpson Foundation is also running an on-line auction (https://www.bartsbashauction.com/lite-ui/#home ) – another excellent way to give a bit to the Foundation.
We have lined up some spectacular prizes: a range of Rooster equipment for all trophy positions; For cruisers, a lift and scrub at Trafalgar Wharf as well as 2 x one year Pro subscription Predictwind.com licenses for weather forecasting and routing – all in addition to a great range of engraved trophies.
Racing is scheduled to start at 11:55 with a Committee boat start and finish with an aim to have everyone ashore by 16:00 for prize -giving and a great social event.
We are expecting to start Cruisers, Victory Keelboat Class, Squibs, Dinghies and Toppers as separate classes in a schedule as shown on the Race Instructions which are available on the PSC web site www.portchestersc.org Please make sure you have read them thoroughly!
A BBQ will be available at certain times but at 16:00 a Hog roast will be served for the hungry sailors (and race officers!) with the BBQ taking over again if needed. We are planning a real ale extravaganza with great discounts along with free squash for kids and as many offers as we can arrange. Tickets for the Hog Roast and BBQ will be on sale during the afternoon along with raffle tickets to win bottles of wine.
The evening band is scheduled to start after the prize-giving taking us ‘till late so let’s make this an event the whole Harbour will be talking about for the next three years when it will be our turn to host again!
Very special thanks go to for Marine Superstore, Trafalgar Wharf, Rooster, Powerworks and others for generous contributions to the cause and allowing us to put on such a special event.
I look forward to seeing you all at the Club on Saturday.
Kind Regards,
Andy Pidduck.
