Sailing The Blackwater: July 2010

http://sailingtheblackwater.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html

About the Sailors, Clubs and open races on the river Blackwater Essex. Friday, July 9, 2010. Summer; The Backwater “time flies by”. Poor tides and a lack of enthusiasm have taken a huge chunk out of the sailing activities in Maylandsea Bay. The summer membership at Brightlingsea has not yet happened and the word on the slip is that fleet is upwardly mobile with it’s tail up and looking to hang on to it’s trophies and I look forward to another rendering of Mrs and Mr Gobbies sailing rules as w...There is ...

Sailing The Blackwater: February 2009

http://sailingtheblackwater.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html

About the Sailors, Clubs and open races on the river Blackwater Essex. Monday, February 23, 2009. No Oscars to be had in Maylandsea Bay. There has been some tough racing between the Lark sailors and again it’s not over yet with just three points being the difference and the error factor being critical. Keith had a tough day loosing the main sheet and taking to the water, but ever the battler sorted and recovered to finish the day with a 6th and a 3rd. Will the winds be kind to the Fireball fleet? Thanks ...

Sailing The Blackwater: Every thing comes to change

About the Sailors, Clubs and open races on the river Blackwater Essex. Monday, November 8, 2010. Every thing comes to change. It is within a state of disappointment that I scribble the following. Race team Jacko-Lorna are no more. The blond by nature Essex girl has closeted her rubber suit, hung up the sailing boots and kissed goodbye to the circus. Simon the new beef cake crew. Al Wigg and Jacko. 65279;Jacko has been well looked after by Lorna who showed great patience as Jacko w...Adnams ice-cream t...

Sailing The Blackwater: Winter solstice and the throwing in of the towel

http://sailingtheblackwater.blogspot.com/2010/12/winter-solstice-and-throwing-in-of.html

About the Sailors, Clubs and open races on the river Blackwater Essex. Thursday, December 23, 2010. Winter solstice and the throwing in of the towel. 65279;Grimly harsh cold with 6 to 8 knots buffing 10 from the north and a lovely white coat of freshly laid snow set the scene as the Essex sailing world threw in the towel. The winter solstice fell two days later and one has to ask why a sailing club would set a 9:00 start with a 10:40 HW? IOS SC. webcam. Brightlingsea S.C. webcam. The Fireballers M...

Sailing The Blackwater: March 2010

http://sailingtheblackwater.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html

About the Sailors, Clubs and open races on the river Blackwater Essex. Tuesday, March 23, 2010. Disappointingly warm southwest breeze on final day. The final two races were sailed on a post lunch tide in conditions that could only be said to be disappointingly warm with a soft southwest breeze, not really in keeping with the splendid nut removing northerlies that have been rattling through the dinghy park and keeping the winter sailor revved up. However it was not nearly so dramatic as Dave and Ron havin...

Sailing The Blackwater: From ‘A Day in the Life’ with The Head Cam

http://sailingtheblackwater.blogspot.com/2010/11/from-day-in-life-with-head-cam.html

About the Sailors, Clubs and open races on the river Blackwater Essex. Tuesday, November 16, 2010. From ‘A Day in the Life’ with The Head Cam. Some time ago we started playing with the Head Cam. It did not start well as the wind chill was subzero and ate the battery life so quickly that it was dead before the starting signal fell. All complaints about the posting should be addressed to shorts@blondandbeutiful.net. Thanks to Jan Nuttall for the Photo. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Stone S. C.

Sailing The Blackwater: Race Day 2 - Port raft bowled out by Fireballs

http://sailingtheblackwater.blogspot.com/2010/11/race-day-2-port-raft-bowled-out-by.html

About the Sailors, Clubs and open races on the river Blackwater Essex. Monday, November 22, 2010. Race Day 2 - Port raft bowled out by Fireballs. The day started very grey and a tad nippy, with the wind northeast 10 to 15 knots. This is a pleasant change to the 15 to 25 knots and may well be the on set of winter winds. The race was won by a RS700 way out on his own somewhere and I would think he had a jolly good sail around the cans. The race from what I could see was to be had in the Fireballs with plac...
