Fleet in action i14 - International 14 http://www.international14.org/
The sun is out, daffodils are blooming and the days are getting longer at last... Spring is just around the corner and with it, the start of the 2016 season!

We will be kicking the season off at Itchenor Sailing Club in true 14 style! Back to back racing will be held on Friday, Saturday and Sunday in the harbour. We will start at 11am on Friday and Saturday, with a nice late 1:30 pm start on Sunday to give you ample Easter egg opening time!

And obviously, no Easter Tray event would be complete without a start of season social! This year we will be reliving the infamous Cabin Cocktail Party from 6pm on Saturday night! Feel free to bring along any ingredients that you think may be of use and recipes for your favourite cocktail. Extra points for anyone who provides props/fancy dress to fit their cocktail theme!

Of course there will be dinner available at the club once you have had your fill of exotic beverages, followed by the mandatory iPod disco in the bar afterwards.

So what are you waiting for? Dust off the cobwebs, air out your kit that's probably still sitting around from last year and hit the water this weekend!
