Quick update for those travelling to the event in advance of Saturday and wishing to drop off boats.
Wednesday & Thursday - club will be open until around 6.30pm for access.
Friday- club will be open until around 6pm but boats can be dropped off after this by prior arrangement but no later than 9pm. So, if you plan to arrive between 6pm and 9pm, you need to advise club manager, Ceri, by telephone - see club tel. number in my first post above - indicating an arrival time and Ceri will be on hand to let you in.
Hope that helps but do give me a shout with any similar questions, etc.
Safe travels.

Hope those of you with fuel that travel have a great event!

A huge SHOUT OUT to all the travellers who journeyed from distant and warmer climes to brave the rigours of a northern Indian summer and take part in the event. You made it so very special for your local compatriots.
I have been asked by all those involved from Carsington - the on the water team, club management, galley team - to pass on their thanks to all the sailors and families for making the weekend's activities so memorable for the club. They all thoroughly enjoyed playing their parts in staging the event and hope we'll be able to return next year. Endeavours will be made to keep the wind but turn up the sun.
The results are here and will shortly be posted on this website: https://www.carsingtonsailingclub.co.uk ... rint-15-tt
And from my perspective, there were some notable and outstanding performances across the fleet in the, sometimes, testing conditions.
Some photos from the brisk sailing conditions on Sunday will also appear in due course.
I hope you all had safe travels home and have now warmed up!
And many congratulations to our southern girl, Jenny, for sailing with such aplomb to take the 2021 Northern Champion title.
On behalf of the CSC sailors - THANK YOU - and see you soon.

It was the best weekend, despite the extremely unpromising forecast and actual weather. It was great to see so many travellers - so thank you to everyone who came. Also great to welcome the three new Carsington Sprint 15 sailors who coped well with everything the weather threw at us! Big thanks to George, Pauline, Henry, Keith, Phil, Ceri and everyone else at Carsington who made it all possible. - looking forward to booking a date for next year.
