EVENTS PLEASE NOTE THAT THE DETAILED ORGANISATION AND MANAGEMENT OF EVENTS IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE INDIVIDUALS PARTICIPATING. HOA ACCEPTS NO LIABILITY FOR ANY ACCIDENT, INCIDENT OR INJURY CAUSED OR SUFFERED DURING AN EVENT. SEE HOA RULE 10. HURLEY OWNERS ASSOCIATION SOUTH RALLY POOLE YACHT CLUB 14 - 15 JULY 2012 Mike Carter has booked us into Poole Yacht Club for the weekend of 14th / 15th July. The tides on the weekends either side of this are particularly strong and potentially awkward for exploring Poole, whereas the tides this weekend are almost negligible.
Poole Yacht Club is Mike's sailing base. There is another event on that weekend, so there should be plenty going on. We may not be able to berth next to each other but they will find space somewhere for us if we let them know numbers a week in advance. It is a fairly large clubhouse, the food is pretty good and they usually have a selection of guest ales. And Poole Quay is only a short walk away.
More details later but we can now get this date in the diaries. HURLEY
OWNERS ASSOCIATION AGM The 2012 HOA AGM will be held at RPCYC, Madeira Road, The Hoe, Plymouth, PL1 2NYon Saturday 25th February 2012. The meeting will be held in the Drake Room which will be available from 1000 - 1400 (meeting start 1100). Anyone wishing to stay after 1400 can use the bar/restaurant area.
HURLEY OWNERS ASSOCIATION ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING Another enjoyable Annual General Meeting of the Association was held on Saturday the 5th March 2011 at The Royal Plymouth Corinthian Yacht Club. As before RPCYC provided a stunning location and superb hospitality.This particular meeting was special for a number of reasons. Firstly it was attended by our President, Ian Anderson. It was a real delight to meet the man who designed our boats. Secondly, there was a presentation to Mike Sheridan, our retiring Treasurer, in recognition of all the work that he has done for the Association. Last but by no means least, it was an opportunity to see proofs of the Hurley Marine book that Tim Sharman and Nick Vass have written. There will be a full account of the meeting in the next Newsletter. In the mean time you can find the Minutes, the Accounts and the Chairman's Report in the Members' Area.
HOA
SOUTH RALLY Eight boats and 13 sailors gathered at the Dan Bran pontoon in Lymington for the HOA South Rally. Four arrived early on the Friday afternoon (Rigadoon Meridian 31 Paul & Neil, Gandalf H22 Rod & Donia, Mi-solite H24 Mike Carter, Honey H22 Howard and Jeremy) while four arrived during the course of Saturday (Strider H22 Tim, Lalep-la H22 Ian, Rifleman Harris H24 Steve and Blaze H22 Dave and Jonathan). On both days some of us travelling westward along the West Solent experienced some fairly brisk south-westerlies.Had there been a prize for the furthest distance travelled it would have been awarded to Howard and Jeremy who came from Portland. On Saturday evening we assembled on the pontoon at around 6.30pm for drinks and nibbles and then moved at around 8.00pm to the The Mayflower for a convivial meal. On Sunday those heading west left during the morning with the ebb while those heading eastwards left during the early to mid-afternnon to take advatage of the first of the flood. A fuller account will appear in the Newsletter and some pictures will be added to this site later.

WEST CORNWALL EVENTS A number of
events were held in Cornwall during 2008, including the social shown
below.
RALLIES 2007 The
Rallies in the 2007 programme were very poorly supported, largely because
of problems with dates and the awful weather in June and July. However
there was a succesful Southern Rally organised by Tim Sharman at Hornet
Sailing Club in Gosport. Four visiting boats turned up: Mike Carter
(Mi-Solite, H24/70), Ken McKenzie (Sulu II, H22), Jeff Moody (Curlew
of Bosham, H24/70) and Nick Grogan (Kione, H22). Dave Gowers arrived
by road and Tim was there of course - he keeps his H22, Strider at Hornet).
It would appear that good food was eaten, good beer was drunk and many
yarns were told. For further details read Mike Carter's report in the
October Newsletter. RALLIES 2006 South - Solent The Solent Rally was held at Marchwood on 17/18th June 2006. There is a full report from Nick Grogan complete with pictures in the July Newsletter East Coast - Medway The East Coast Rally was scheduled for the Medway on 27/28th May. Unfortunately bad weather meant that any sailing had to be cancelled but a number of members met for Saturday lunch at Hoo Ness Yacht Club South West - Plymouth The South West Rally took place on 1st/2nd July in Plymouth and there is a full report from Tim Sharman in the July Newsletter. Below is a photomontage of some of the many pictures taken at the rally. It looks as though everyone had a marvellous time. Perhaps the pictures will encourage more members to attend next year's rallies
The Cross-Channel Rally - 23rd-26th July 2005 The weather and other factors proved frustrating for those taking part and prevented them from getting to Cherbourg. However, a good time was had by all. A full report is in the October 2005 newsletter.
