Three's
As of 13/11/11 BGSC has two more fleets.
This is as a result of the rather sad closure of Ragley S.C.,
the upside being that quite a number of their sailors have
joined BG and brought two new fleets with them. Mirrors and
Merlin Rockets will feature in our sailing programme from
now on. We have also gained Laser and Enterprise sailors.
The club is very pleased to extend a warm welcome to our new
sailing friends. A small gallery HERE.
