Hanse Rally / Medway Regatta 18th 19th July 2009
Hanse UK and the Medway Yacht Club are delighted to invite all Hanse owners to participate in the Hanse Rally as part of the Medway Regatta over the weekend 18th 19th July 2009. The main Hanse event will be a Saturday 18th July with opportunity for competitive racing or for the more genteel amongst the fleet a white sails only race and raft up. MYC invite all Hanses to join in the Medway Regatta either in whole or in part if there is enough interest a class start will be organised. Four boats have already signed up including a 312, a 317 and two 400s. Itinerary: Thursday 16th Short evening race followed by BBQ Friday 17th Racing followed by dinner Saturday 18th racing and/or a white sails cruise in company for Hanse yachts with afternoon raft up with evening Regatta Party & Hanse Cup prize giving Sunday 19th Morning race followed by Regatta prize giving Moorings Free from MYC (where available) Discount from MDL Chatham Maritime Non Sailors Explore the garden of England, the delights of Chatham Historic Dockyard (the birth place of HMS Victory) or the award winning Dickens World exhibition with the facilities of MYC open to family and crew throughout the event. Medway Yacht Club Is situated on the river Medway in Kent one of the nine navigable rivers that make up the beautiful lower east coast cruising ground easily reached from the south coast and other east coast ports. MYC makes an ideal starting point for that alternative summer cruise (avoiding the uro zone) or the launch pad for a cruise up the Thames to London or over to Holland. If you are interested please let me know at mailto:colin.weston@blueyonder.co.uk - colin.weston@blueyonder.co.uk |

I will try and attend but I think to sail my 301 from Barmouth to the Medway would not be practical, so if there is a chance of a sail, that would be good if not I will just join in with the drinking.

Well interest is growing so far we have had 11 boats express an interest in attending covering the range from 31 to 43 including another 371.
Boats are coming from the south coast and all along the east coast so hopefully we should have a good rally.

Hi all Scotch Mist (312) should be there! We'll be setting off from the Solent Tue or Wed before and heading cross channel after the event, returning the following weekend to the Solent. Anyone want to cruise in company for part of the 'voyage'? ------------- Andrew Scotch Mischief Dehler 38 by Hanse |

Hi Andrew
Good to hear that we have a couple of south coast boats planning on coming round for the rally, there is plenty of room for more and a cruise in company along the south coast and round to the Medway would be a great way to start the rally.
I am sure you know the passage which can be achieved non stop in about 24 hours or we normally break the journey either at Dover if we are doing two days and Brighton or Royal Sovereign (Eastbourne) if we are taking it easy over three days.
After the rally the Medway is the perfect start point for a trip up the Thames to London or exploring the east cost rivers.
Now all we need is a few friends from France and the Netherlands!
See you at the rally.

Hi Crispin & Rose
Good to hear another boat coming that makes 3 43's plus a host of other boats.
We have arranged a group pontoon for those using the MDL Chatham marina and will also have a raft up on Saturday afternoon.
If you drop me your email address to mailto:colin.weston@blueyonder.co.uk - colin.weston@blueyonder.co.uk I will let you know the other boats that are coming from the South coast.
Looking forward to seeing you on the Medway.

Guys
For all those attending the Medway Rally and staying at MDL Chatham.
Please note there is no need to book. The events pontoon has been booked for the event. Just advise the lock keeper on channel 80 when requesting permission to enter that you are part of the Hanse Rally.
The events pontoon is to port as you exit the lock into the marina. Remember to lower your fenders as you leave the lock so they are just short of the water.

Hi Mike
Yes Friday night is for boats to gather and crews to make use of the BBQ facilities at MDL.
It is a bring your own food and drink but BBQ's will be provided.
The site is alongside the lock over looking the river and Upnor Castle and a no distance at all from the events pontoon so just come along when you are ready and join in the fun.
