Perhaps like all boat owners it's not always possible to muster crew every time you fancy a sail and so for this season, to try and get an extra sail or two, I'm hoping that Mac Sailors in the vicinity or Rutland Water (and I have just over an hours drive) might be up for a bit of extra sailing!
It's a lovely stretch of water http://www.discover-rutland.co.uk/aboutrutland/rutlandwater and if you haven't been it's worth a look around sometime anyway . . . especially from the water! Anyone up for it? Drop me an email on
and let me know.

Jonathon,
I tried commenting on your account but it probably does not send out an e-mail, hopefully this will.
We will be at Greetham from Thursday 22nd July to Sunday 26th July so if Saturday 25th would be OK for you, it would be great to get together and have a sail on your Mac on Rutland Water?
Either reply to this or my mobile no. 07836 221509 (SMS or voice) alternatively home no. 0118 901 9391 but we will be in the caravan at Sandringham from this Thursday 16th.

Hi Morris,
Yep, that should be fine. I'll give you a call over the next few days to discuss. Late getting the boat on the water this season, literally launched last Saturday!
Do you sail all weathers? Must admit I'm keen to get some sailing in but not enjoyable in howling wind/soaking rain! Fingers crossed then!
How far are you from Rutland? Takes me just over an hour so a morning sail through to early / mid-afternoon with sandwiches and stuff usualy works nicely.
My mobi is 07773 225078.
CheersJonathan
Jonathon,
great, I will call you later next week and we can make some time/place arrangements.
We will be about 15-30 mins from Rutland Water near Oakham.
Also we are "fair weather" sailors so the nearer we get to 25th the better idea of what's occurring, weather wise.
Cheers

Johnathon,
thanks very much for the opportunity to sail Rutland Water both Rita and I really enjoyed it and the weather was very kind to us with some challenging gusts as well. I have put some photos up on the media section (Miscellaneous)
Fair winds & calm waters
