Enterprises at Pilkington Sailing Club this Sunday

by Richard Critchley 16 May 2011 23:52 PDT 22 May 2011

Enterprises and Pilkington Sailing Club go back a long way together. They have been the home fleet of the club for virtually as long as they both have lived. The hotly contested Pilkington Enterprise Open Trophy is up for grabs again this Sunday and welcomes any Ent sailor along to experience the unique conditions and unequivable hospitality.

With those rumoured to be attending including previous winners such as Steve Blackburn, Royston Taggart, and Richard Critchley, as well as NW Phantom Legend (but experienced GP and Ent helm) Ed Thomas, the racing should be second to none.

Race Officer Bill Wilcox should have some cracking courses in store for what promises to be a battle of epic proportions!
