2023 Nationals -Just 2 weekends to go.

Weecher Reservoir, a great place to race.

16th & 17th September is the date for the 2023 MYA Marblehead Nationals, not many sleeps to go!

Update from the club is that the water is looking good, everything is in place and the Keighley Club are looking forward to welcoming all M skippers from the UK and beyond.

The entry list is packed with quality, with a few names missing from the list, although they have verbally indicated they will be there, so probably closer to 20 currently entered. The outlook is for some superb racing and friendly banter along with the usual fun.

We achieved 28 entries last year and it would be fantastic if we can get to this again for 2023.

Please get your entries in people, it is a massive help to the event and the hosts to know who is going to be there. Not least because tables are to be booked at the Dick Hudsons pub in Bingley for a class get together on Saturday night.
