Summer Rally to Bembridge – July 2016

Posted on by

11 members of Oxted Offshore and 4 boats cast off for Bembridge on the Isle of White during the last weekend in July for the Oxted Offshore Summer Rally. With low water occurring late morning on Saturday it was a little challenging getting over the bar at Bembridge but it was worth it to discover such a lovely little harbour. The marina staff and facilities were good and we managed to get all boats moored for around 18:00 in time for Commodores Cocktails on Degree of Latitude.

Many thanks to OO Member John Rutherford for last weekend for letting myself and a number of other members come racing with him in the June Summer Series Royal Southern 175 Regatta.  We experienced testing conditions and the 2nd race on Saturday was called off due to reports of 30 knot winds,  the wind abated long enough on Sunday however for full days of racing; click here to read the full report of the racing on the Royal Southern website.
