MauriceMynah Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Very quick suggestion,2015 had one meet north, two meets south. How about alternating that?Perhaps one at Salhouse and one at Thurne Dyke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawsOrca Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Hi John.. Good idea on the two northern meets and one southern.. It seems there are more members up north.How about Spring and autumn up north.. South for the summer one as it should be that bit quieter meaning moorings should be easier to book.Spring.. Salhouse. How about a bank holiday?Summer. OBYS (or coldham hall or Loddon?!). About the same time as this years.Autumn.. Womack ?! (Late september?!)

Bank Holidays are much more expensive for hirers, Alan... that's why we try to keep away from them. Also we did discuss next Spring and that date's already booked.We would have to book by the end of the year to get OBYS and they would want numbers pretty accurately by next Easter at the latest, but I think that's a good idea. How about July 23/24, 2016 at OBYS?Again Womach isn't bookable to my knowledge but I'm open to any other ideas! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockham Admiral Posted August 17, 2015 Author Share Posted August 17, 2015 Ranworth Island?That's already used by the NBF I believe, Polly and we try not to tread on each others toes; so we'd have to know when they use it.But if sufficient peeps want it then please feel free to to add it to the suggestions!

Polly Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 (edited) I know they do, and it's usually the third weekend in June. The island is booked through the Cators and a number of organisations use it, not just NBF. However, it's not worth fostering any bad feeling.

We'd be a month later, Polly, but I agree with your thoughts. I wonder what others think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
