Burnham Week 2021

Are you ready – we are delighted to announce that today marks the opening of entries for Burnham Week 2021. We know you are wanting to join Burnham Week again and we are very much looking forward to welcoming you all - previous and new competitors alike - to Burnham Week 2021.

Flexibility is a common request from competitors, and we are setting up to do just that. First starts will be at midday - some fleets are looking for one start each day and other fleets are asking if they can have two starts each day midweek. The answer is: Yes, you can! - we are going to be flexible and provide the racing each fleet is aiming for.

Canoe, Kayak, and stand up paddleboards are wishing to join the fun – so why not enter BW2021!

Finally, Trophy Day would not be the same without the Town Cup and Houghton Cup races. There will be longer races for all classes on Trophy Day so let's make it memorable. It's all about having fun on the water and a relaxed atmosphere – we are planning to have all of that.

Racing is organised by Burnham Week on behalf of Burnham Sailing Club, Royal Burnham Yacht Club and Royal Corinthian Yacht Club. Members from the three clubs working together on the Race Committee to provide great courses, with starts at Pile House and the BSC.

Please look at the website for full details: www.burnhamweek.com Entry forms can be found at http://www.burnhamweek.com/fleets/

Class Boat Ready for Use

The class boat is now ready to be loaned out.

We need to look to the future of the class and the new blood that can be welcomed into the Osprey family. The details (application form and loan agreement form) on how to acquire the boat for a defined period are now available. The forms can be filled in electronically, but with Google Chrome browser when you save a completed form it does not save the information you have entered. This is not much good. So on Microsoft Windows systems, download document and open with either Adobe Acrobat Reader or Microsoft Edge browser.

The Osprey Class Committee are actively looking for the first crew to take her on and join us. If you know of a suitable crew then get in touch with your committee members or local Osprey representatives.

The forecast was for light winds but warmer than the arctic spring we have endured.

In fact, it was "Champagne Sailing". Anyone who did not come because of the forecast missed a treat. Outside of the harbour, the wind was 4 knots but inside, the sea breeze gave us 14 knots in the sun.

TerryBeenieHat It was 11.30 on the 9th February, the chimes in the front porch rang out, the Postman’s delivered some mail, strange we are not expecting any mail today. Doom its an A5 brown envelope usually means agro of some sort. Open it with some trepidation WOW it is an Osprey Beanie Hat, and we have snow on the ground and freezing conditions. How on earth did the committee know I needed to keep my head warm?

Seriously tho what a super idea by the committee and it’s a good way to get the Osprey promoted in these difficult times. Sadly, my time as an Osprey owner lapsed some years back when my left knee started to clonk and clunk making me less than agile and a liability in anything over a 2/3.
