When you go into website under open meetings it says  11am start but assume the nor is correct at 1 pm

If you haven't been before, Chew Valley is such a great sailing spot. It's not only gorgeous, but also big enough to feel like you can stretch your legs and restricted enough to feel like proper sailing!
 
It's also easy to get to from almost everywhere so would be great to see everyone from Birmingham, the South West, Burghfield, Lymington, London and beyond!

Long range forecast is looking amazing for Chew Valley silver tiller! Windy.com has it at 14kts at 13:00 on Saturday and 15kts at 11:00 on Sunday.
£10 for a campervan (must prebook!) or loads of accommodation nearby. 
Cheap bar and 6 races... what more could you want?!

Afraid no tents - the lease doesn’t allow it. 

Vans definitely allowed but don’t forget to prebook!

Good news on the Friday drop off front - one of the Chew committee has offered to be at the club between 1830 and 2000. The gate will be locked outside of these times.

Please contact Bill Chard directly on 07901 826 589 if you wish to make use of this.

I was going to say that there is a TV to watch the rugby at the club if you are keen enough to get to Chew early...
 
...but now the rugby has been cancelled, you don't even need to worry about missing it on the drive to the sailing!
