Southern Travellers Update

Only three events remain for the 2018 GP14Southern Travellers with a traditional mixture of  sea, river and pond sailing so there must be something for everyone!

 There were over 20 Southern boats at the Worlds down in Mounts Bay so hopefully everyone has now recovered and can be tempted to join us at one of the GP14 Open meetings in our area.
