Yes, nice to hear that the few that attended had a reasonable time, but suppose typical bank holiday weather cant be guaranteed to be nice for all except ducks!
I await your other event date with baited breath, hopefully its a nice day and Im not booked to be in work that day.

HI all
Well we had a decent turn our despite the terrible weather with over 20 Lifeboats being there on the day. Alan from Dudley won the plaque for Best Boat in the Show for his 1/12th scale Tyne Class Lifeboat which was voted for by a member of the public but which was well deserved in my opinion.
The RNLI Fundraisers were unable to set out their stall due to the weather as they could not afford for their stock to get wet which was quite understandable. Due to our lack of fundraising on the day we are considering having a further event later on in the year possibly in September so WATCH THIS SPACE!
Thank you for all those that attended on the day it made it worthwhile putting on the event so it wasn't a total flop!

Have to appologise, but due to the weather, I was unable to attend. I waited at home for several hours, watching the rain clouds, hoping for a break, but to no avail.
hope all went well and everyone did not get too wet !

HI Gregg
I received your email stating that you would be attending our event. in your email you hadn't asked a query so I incorrectly assumed it was just a notification that didn't require a reply. I am pleased that you will be attending and if you have any queries, I'll be only too happy to answer them if I can.
Thanks.

I'm going to try my best to get over there, "made my mind up" ! [ha ha].
Mersey wont be 100% but still worth sailing over there if they will let me!
