Lifeboat Regatta

The Lifeboat Regatta takes place this Saturday, 27th August, and we are looking forward to a good attendance to support the valuable work of RNLI in the area.

The Regatta will start at 1.30pm and details of the race(s) will be announced on the day. It is anticipated that racing will be finished by 4.00pm. The Lifeboat plan to come up to the marina for approximately 4.00pm (all being well) and have invited members to come and have a look round the boat. It is really worth going aboard – it’s a fascinating piece of machinery.

People are then asked to come to the clubhouse for refreshments and prize giving at 4.45pm. There will be a nominal entry fee of €5 per person, all proceeds in aid of the Lifeboat. Obviously we’ll be passing round the bucket too. Please come along and show your support for this vital service.

So, the schedule in summary:

1.30pm – Regatta Start

4.00pm – Racing completed

4.00 – 4.45pm – Lifeboat available for viewing

4.45pm – Prizegiving and Refreshments
