Class Boat Ready for Use

The class boat is available for crews to borrow under a loan agreement.
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 crews 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 boat has already been used by several different crews, could you be next!

Having only admired the Osprey from a distance for many years both Chris and I jumped at the chance when we had the offer of sailing the Osprey Class Association’s Hartley Mk5 at the End of Season Final Fling held at Carsington Sailing Club. This boat had previously finished third at the Osprey National Championships at Tenby and the Osprey Inland Championships at Blithfield. It is available for loan to teams wanting to sample the Osprey experience.
We arrived Saturday morning to light and variable winds so some tricky inland sailing conditions to contend with.

The forecast did not look promising and along with the national fuel shortage numbers were sure to be affected. On Friday night the first teams arrived with a few managing a quick shake down sail as the dusk fell, among them Richard and Mark Hartley in the new Mk VI Osprey. This was followed by an impromptu curry and the mandatory tapping of the real ale, a great start to the weekend.
Saturday morning dawned and was in fact a perfect day to go sailing. The wind was due to drop as the day went along but it would be trapezing conditions to begin with. 15 Osprey teams had made the effort and would be rewarded with some epic and challenging conditions throughout the course of the weekend.

On the 11th & 12th September the Osprey Scottish and Northern Championships were held at Kielder Water. The best bit about this event, (which has run for many years) is travelling up, as it gets quieter the further North you get. Upon arrival the vastness of this place is a sight to be seen. In the log cabin Club House, with its log fire burning, supper was served, with fine Penine Brewery Ales.
