JUST a word to let you know that I have taken over from Lesley Scott (M10849) as Mirror Fleet Captain of Langstone Sailing Club. The fleet this year is expanding rapidly, and forms a large proportion of the boats in the Club (every other dinghy in the boat-park seems to be a Mirror!) —we now have 35, as a result of many new members joining this year.
Racing enthusiasm (not our greatest asset over the past few seasons) has risen like a phoenix out of the ashes, and fine new talent is coming our way to knock more elderly of us off our well-worn pedestals! After a few seasons of experience, these potential champions will be a force to be reckoned with, so beware Chichester Harbour!
In spite of the bulging boat-park, new members are always welcome to apply, although the waiting-list is, I believe, getting longer every minute.
Anyway, keep up the good work, and I hope this reaches you in time for the next Reflections. Many thanks, A. Woodmanley (M36713).
