Thoroughly enjoyed the weekend despite the long haul to get round to the Medway from the south coast. If the event is going to be run again next year at the Medway Yacht club(or elsewhere) I think it would be a good idea to announce the dates well in advance so that people can plan ahead to allow for it in their summer planning ensuring that it does not clash with other holiday plans etc. The event would then benefit from greater numbers and even more fun!

We also found it a great and enjoyable event. Thanks to Dominic, Heiko and Paul for organising it, and the Medway Yacht Club for hosting us so well. We had a good trip up from Hamble, apart from some thick fog going into We had to leave for the homeward trip on the Sunday and it was interesting. We motored down to the North Foreland in no wind and a glassy sea. Passing All in all a brilliant event, long may it continue. It was really good meeting fellow Hanse owners and talking to them about their experiences. Medway was a great venue and the organisation there could not be faulted but maybe we should give other areas a chance? Do I sense a Hanse association developing? Again thanks to all who made the event such a success for us. Pete & Ros Sheppard + crew John & Gill Williams |

I am pleased evreryone enjoyed the event at Medway. Please let me know if anybody is intrested in a repeat, I would be happy to organise the same event next year. Glad to see Gretel got home safely. Hope to see you next year. On the subject of rallies Heiko (Lady McG) and I have just returned from the Hanse cup, held at the factory at Greifswald. I can highly reccommend this well organised event, many thanks to the Hanse staff at the factory. It would be nice not to be the only UK boat next year, it is well worth the effort. Where else could you feed and water a crew of 4 for 5 days and get change out of 100 euros? Once again thanks to all those who made the effort to come to the Medway we hope to see a lot more boats for next year. Paul+Benita 312 Happy Dayz
PS It was the wife who did all the donkey work for the Medway rally!!!

I would only be too glad to arrange the same event for 2006. I will speak to medway Yacht club and Chatham Marina to get suitable dates. If we can get enough support I can't see a problem. What is the new battleship? |

Paul, Ger 4 will be a brand new 370, my lust for speed has got the better of me Delivary will be May so I wil only be able to make Chatam after this time, however I am sure that if your meet is early Hanse will have a new 630 demo that we can borrow, crash her round that lock and give her a used look. When selecting a good time my preference is for steady wind aprox 20 knots always on my beam , Sunshine and tide that will be with me on Friday and also with me on Sunday or Monday for return trip.
