I think looking at the photos that I need to improve my starting in larger fleets!

2nd row is never quick. Might be able to keep up with you a bit easier instead of trying to chase you down ;o)

Last call, any more takers as it looks like entries will fill out in the next day or so?

Only 10 places left.

Leave your boat at Pitsford and pick up on the way to the Tiger Trophy the week after?

2 more to be the biggest fleet there!

Hi Jonathan,

What browser are you using, or were you trying to enter on mobile?

The Steve Nik site doesn't have a drop down menu, so you shouldn't have had an issue with this site?

If you could let me know what you were accessing the sites with i'll go through and do some testing with the same.

Thanks

I'm going - Aero 1141!!

Had great difficulty entering on-line: both the Steve Nicholson event & Northampton SC Home web pages would load & display and then do no more. No drop downs working.

Had to telephone the club this morning to make my entry!!

12 Aeros entered so far, which is great, only around 20 places left at the event, so if you want to do the Steve Nik, now is the time to enter as the last few places generally go very quickly.

Steve Nicholson Trophy - Northampton SC (Pitsford Reservoir)

Saturday 30th Jan

Five RS Aeros now entered. I'm in!

This is our Webmaster Anthony 'Chunky' York's home club. He now has his RS Aero and is really getting into racing it. Come and support him, his home event and Asthma UK, the great charity that this event supports.

Format;

Two PY races with lunch break in between.

We will likely be split into a fleet of single handers - so no spinnakers/asymmetrics to avoid!

This event is round 6 of the RS Aero UK Series.

It does not form part of the SailJuice Series, allowing the whole of your entry fee to go to their Charity.

The entry limit is reduced this year to just 120 (less chaos!) so do get your entries in promptly now, as it will fill up.

Info and online entry;

Filling up quick, only 48 places left.

At least I have one 7 to race against!

Hi All, just a quick heads up, I am about to send out a mailshot to previous competitors about the Steve Nic event, this normally brings in the entries quite quickly.

We currently have an aero of each size entered (myself in a 7, Lucy in a 5 and Jack in his 9), would be great to fill up some more spaces with Aeros.

Limited to 120 places this year, over 50 already entered.

If you wish to stop over to club race on the Sunday, you are quite welcome.

Hi everyone,

just a quick note to say that the Steve Nicholson Trophy at Northampton Sailing Club, on the 30th January is now open for entries: http://stevenicholsontrophy.co.uk/

So get entering before we run out of space! Limited entries, would be good to fill the event up with RS's ;o))
