MOA Social - Lechlade April '22

quentin.sands's picture

This was a hugely enjoyable gathering of MOA members - some with boats - over the last weekend in April by the Thames in Lechlade. There was a lot of chatting and sharing and, before a grand dinner at the Riverside Inn, a riveting talk by Richard Kerswell outlining his sail around Britain in Pegasus, his 26M. Outgoing Commodore Simon Armitage then presented Richard with the Janita Shield awarded to Richard for his seamanship and achievements last summer.

The 'Social', the first of its kind, highlighted the strengths of the association: friendships were cemented, new friends were welcomed and all went away with new knowledge, confidence and determination to make the most of our boats. A fuller report on the Lechlade Social will appear in the next Newsletter which members will receive in a few weeks time.
