2012 Small-Boat Sailors rendezvous.

First rendezvous this year will be held late May beginning of June 2012. Three suggested venues are Mell Creek spit, Osea Island beaches (north or south) and Goldhanger Creek. Any further suggestions etc please email. Date still to be confirmed.

Just a little info for those that do not already know of the Small Boat Sailors group. We are group of small boat enthusiasts formed at a gathering with Charles Stock on his mooring at Ballast Hole, Heybridge 2010 on his retirement from sailing.
Our aim is to celebrate small boat cruising for the sheer fun of it by rendezvousing in the memory and ethos of Charles. No restrictions on class of boat, but all attendees are asked to bring the obligatory steak and kidney puddings to be cooked the AC Stock method, in the kettle. and as we are a group of friends, by hanging wellies of of sterns and attending you do so at your own risk. If your boat can take the ground this may be of benefit as we anchor in very shallow water and may also beach.
