Thanks for posting this Claus. Do you know who is organising the possible English Raid? I could possibly make the Solent in July/August. My main problem is figuring out how to row my boat

Thanks for posting this Claus. Do you know who is organising the possible English Raid? ... Julian, I do know them, they have sent a Heads Up! notice, but are not ready yet to go fully public with final details. What I heard is that the English Raid will go out of -and end in- Keyhaven. Possible stopovers will be taken from Christchurch, Keyhaven, Lymington, Yarmouth, Newtown Creek, Beaulieu River, Cowes/Medina River, Hamble River, Wootton Creek, Bembridge, Portsmouth or Chichester. Stay tuned. C. |

No chance of a Rio Minho raid next year, then?
Eu sei, miúdos! Porque don\\\' t nós fazemos a Invasão para a direita aqui!
(Bad Babelfish translation of \\\"I know, kids. Why dont we do the Raid right here!\\\")

Tony,
Rio Minho is not possible in 2010, too little time left. I am waiting for the Club Nautico San Telmo in Tui to respond. Difficult, as I have no spanish.
I am looking at 2011, before the Morbihan Week, so the UK participants can take the direct ferry from Portsmouth to Santander and go back by road via Morbihan Week. Best of both worlds.
BTW, the Velalonga Raid Venice has just been confirmed for June 1st to 5th. 2010. All Raiders and other Swallowboaters should consider it, it\\\'s really wonderful, well worth the journey. We\\\'ll be there ourselves.

Claus, you mention an English Raid starting from Keyhaven. I sail from Keyhaven, am a member of Keyhaven Yacht Club and know the owner of the boat yard just behind the club. If I can be of any help please let me know.

Dear Brian,
that is a most kind and certainly most welcome offer. I will send you a PM and will try to put you into direct contact with the organisers.

Brian,
I was apparently unsuccessful sending you a PM.
I would like to pass your e-mail address on to the organisers of the Solent Raid. Please email me at claus.riepe at googlemail.com .

Careful what you wish for .... I have never been so busy! If this is retirement I should have read the small print more closely. |

Thanks for the pdf Claus. 20 boats! The event is supported by the Royal Lymington. Between the Royaland Keyhaven Clubs there would be more than 20 Scows wanting to join in. Brian

One of the Solent Raid organisers has been in touch and we hope to meet up next week. He asked if I had a Swallow Boat. Only a little Scow I am afraid. Any chance Matt might need a crew to test the new BR17?

Has anyone tried the Three Rivers Race from Horning, on the Broads?
