Proteus Pop-Up !! …. Put September 20th in your Calendar !!

Leave a reply

Proteus is developing a strong following – both in UK and Globally!!

  • Want race against other Proteus skippers boat-for-boat?
  • Want to get your hands on a Proteus or simply want to try one?
  • Want to compare notes and ideas with other Proteus owners?
  • Maybe you’ve already built a Proteus and would like to hear Craig talking the Proteus evolution and how to set the rig, tune one up?
  • Fancy getting your hands on latest Fibreglass Proteus from K7 and even giving one a trial sail??
  • Want to see the latest fittings, sails and gear that Craig favours for his own boat? Datchet Radio Sailing, UK Home of the Proteus, is pleased to announce a Proteus Pop Up Open Day on Sunday September 20th.

We hope to be able to offer all of the above on the 20th September at Datchet Radio Sailing.  There should honestly be a mass of kit to to see and try for yourself – with direct access to Craig and the specialist team.

By necessity, we need to control numbers and access to the Club.  If you are interested in coming along to join the day, please reserve a place by emailing drscommodore at outlook.com

HOLD THE DATE – 20th September…. !!

Leave a reply

You may have spotted that Datchet Radio Sailing was due to hold the Ten Rater Nationals on September 19th/20th.

We are back sailing again after the huge drought-driven water-level drop, but now on the 200 acres of water at the far end of the reservoir. After much soul searching, the Club came to the view that although the arrangement (1 mile drive from the clubhouse) is fine for Club Racing it would inevitably bring challenges (course laying in certain key wind directions, facilities etc) for running a National Event. Reluctantly, we had to cancel.

Boo to the drought….

BUT HOLD THE DATE !!! Mark 20th September in your calendar. We are going to try a Pop-Up not ever offered before – at our wonderful Clubhouse and on the Water. You don’t have to be a Club member, but if you are even vaguely interested in IOMs and live within a reasonable drive you might be really keen to put your name down.

Numbers will be limited….
