Rescheduled Grafham Grand Prix to 22 Feb

Due to the low level of water in the puddle the club have postponed the event until 22 Feb.

Cheers

No water?   Is there a perculiar micro climate at Grafham?  We seem to have had plenty of rain   :(

Hi Ian
Don't tell me all the skiffs drunk it at the Ovington event.
I hear the Phantom stuck to beer as normal.

With 180 boats due the water level is at a point where its logistically difficult to launch and recover the large number f boats.

They had a choice of either reducing the entries or delaying the event.

Hi Ian,
   We've got a couple of million gallons spare down in Devon, would you like me to post it up?
