Next year our race day is
set for
August 16th 2008– Buller Day
Please
note the new date for this year

You
are all invited to join in Cadgwith Gig Club’s
annual racing event BULLER DAY on Saturday
August 16, 2008. This will be an important
event for our club as it marks the Buller’s
21st year.
We
would ask if boats could start arriving from
10.00am? as it does take time to unload the
boats in the cove (no later than 12.00? please!)
IMPORTANT:
THESE ARE 2007 TIMES, SO NOT CONFIRMED FOR
2008 YET
It
would be appreciated if all gigs could follow
the signs to Cadgwith and avoid the route
through Ruan Minor (head towards the Lizard)
Once at the top of the hill Cadgwith members
will be on hand to organise the transportation
of the gigs down the hill. Please wait until
told to head into the cove as, most of you
are aware, it will cause problems.
It
would be appreciated if all rowers could follow
the signs to Ruan Minor where we have managed
to organise a field for parking. The field
will be signposted and is situated at the
top of the hill going into Cadgwith, a 5min
walk to the Cove.

We
are hoping that the weather is good to us
this year and all visiting crews enjoy their
time in Cadgwith. We will be running a BBQ
and a bar throughout the day and a disco is
planned for the evening. Unfortunately
due to the space restrictions in the cove
we will have to limit numbers so please let
Sam know as soon as possible if you want to
attend
PLEASE
leave gigs in car park until instructed. Please
contact us before bringing gigs to the village,
so we can help. Travel
info
The
prize giving will be in the Gig shed where
you will be welcome to stay for an evening
of drinking and food, and hopefully some good
entertainment.
Please
let us know as soon as possible if you are
able to attend
Camping
info:
Ron
and Jo Lyne (Lizard Village) have contacted
the Cadgwith Gig Club regarding their event
this year.
A lot of crews camped at their campsite in
Lizard village last year and the rowers appreciated
their taxi run to Cadgwith. They would like
to inform those rowers that spaces are getting
booked up very fast so if you intend to return
this year please let them know as soon as
possible. Their phone number is 01326 290596
PLEASE BOOK IN ADVANCE FOR 2008

You
just have to read this..
Loosing the Cox on a buoy turn!!!
and
"rowing with French sticks"
lol
This
is held every year to commemorate the
lives of two local fishermen lost at sea.
This years event was a bit unique with
the leading men in the Rose losing a cox
overboard on the last buoy turn. The Rose
however still won coxless leaving Buller
and Socoa to chase them. Well done boys.
The
womens (with a few men) wasn't quite
as exciting. Buller
lead up to the first mark but eventually
came second to the Rose. The excuses
coming from the crew in Rose included,
thanks to Mike "we may as well have
been rowing with french sticks rather
than these oars", "they have
a lighter boat" "more men".
ETC ETC
