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
