I am pleased to announce that, after the success of last year, Swallow Yachts are returning to Falmouth in 2016 for their second annual Raid.
The dates for your diary are Mon 27 Jun to Fri 1 Jul 2016. It will follow a similar format to last year with launching on the Monday, three days of sailing to different locations for lunch, and recovery of the boats on Friday. Each evening, dinner will be laid on in Castaways restaurant overlooking Mylor Yacht Harbour where the boats will be moored.
Light-hearted competition will be available each day to those who wish to partake, with separate classes for the smaller boats with oars and the larger ones without. Accomodation options range from a campsite dedicated to Raid participants just a few hundred yards along the foreshore, local B&Bs/self catering, to just sleeping on your boat in the marina.
If you're new to all this, us Swallow Boaters (or should that be Swallow Yachters!) are a friendly bunch and there will always be help at hand. So, put the date in your diary and come and join us for a great week of sailing and socialisation!
BOOKINGS ARE NOW BEING TAKEN! Proposed programme/costs and booking forms are available here to download or email me at events@swallowyachts.com. Be aware, we may have to limit the numbers to around 25 boats and the campsite only takes 12 units.
*UPDATE*
I've updated the list of boat entries. We have 24 boats coming! But we do need help with crewing the second safety boat... any willing volunteers will be welcomed with open arms and generous terms!
Helen
