3 races, back to back? On wembley??

Yep - thought that it would give a few people more time to arrive plus those with long journeys can get on the road home earlier rather than spend half the day launching and recovering. There will be a speed boat on hand with refreshments and we are hoping to schedule in a short WC break between races if needed so you can hold boats on the pontoons and nip to the changing rooms and back.

Thanks, I will need WC breaks...my bladder control is as good as my hiking!
If minor dehydration didn't affect the brain so much it would be easy to cope with hours on the water.
