Many people consider last year (2010) Whitstable Open Meeting to be the Best Open Meeting EVER (BOME).

What made it so great according to the privileged few that attended was...

1. Beer
2. Beer
3. Rick Perkins' winning speech.

This year will be a few weeks earlier, can it improve on last year? - is that even possible?

The excellent Whitstable Yacht Club website will have all of the sailing details nearer the time...

I'll be there if anyone needs spares, please let me know.

I will have the emergency kit with me, and at Rutland.
