Rafting Romp at Aqua Sports Sizzling Summer Solstice Members Party Night on Saturday 20th June ...

There was a great turnout for the Summer Solstice party and everyone participated in and enjoyed the raft building and race challenge. Five teams competed in the raft building challenge and despite the advanced engineering abilities of the adults (you would have hoped) the raft deigned by the Sea Cadet was the only one to complete the race intact. So well done to the Sea Cadets who won the great prize of a taster session of their choice.

The BBQ was lit to refuel all after their great efforts and we even had a few freshwater cray to chuck on the coals - courtesy of Olli - and sank a few beers while the sun set. [Go for pics of the event]

Aqua Sports Newsflash - Hybrid wind power!

Following a hectic taster day for a school, the Aqua Sports Research and Development team were spotted on the lake, testing the new windsurf / dinghy hybrid! Big things were expected..... .... [Read Article]

Summer Solstice late night was a great success with John Hibbard's presentation a fantastic climax to the evening. The stronger wind from earlier in the day had tailed off to a gentle breeze, still plenty for everyone to go out for a play with. By 7.30 p.m. the water was looking pretty busy. Whilst our windsurfers worked hard on their skills, we fired up the barbie and John Hibbard prepared for his evening presentation. As hungry folk derigged and got changed, Stewart got the barbie underway. Soon, there was sausages and burgers for all to consume.

Just before the presentation Andy got the cocktail shaker out and concocted a fantastic 'K007' Martini, fully shaken and definitely not stirred. The 'secret' recipe cannot be revealed and although it was deliciously moreish, we drank sensibly and were soon all seated for the presentation to begin.

John Hibbard is a fantastic narrator and he had us all under his spell as he took us around some of the world's famous and less famous windsurfing spots... each with its own John Hibbard experience story. The evening rounded off with a windsurfing quiz for which we divided into teams. The winning team all received Tushingham t-shirts.

We'd like to thank John Hibbard and Tushingham Sails for a great evening...
