UPDATED:  11 June 2021

It’s with massive regret that we have to

announce the cancellation of the 2021 UIM

GT15 and OSY400 World Championships.

This choice has been a very hard one for the

club to make and a huge amount of time, 

resources and effort has been made in an 

attempt to make the event happen.

     The UIM are supportive of our decision and
we thank them for this. We have expressed a wish to apply again for 2023.

     The ultimate decision was made because we were unable to satisfy the requirements for an international event by guaranteeing quarantine and restriction free travel to and from the UK for the overseas competitors and officials.

     Our attention is now on a successful domestic shortened season with an “all class” National event on the weekend of Saturday the 17th and Sunday the 18th of July.

     Stay safe everyone and fingers crossed the current Goverment restrictions are lifted, as planned, on the 21st of June.

4x4 Launch vehicle:

​

    •  MOT •  Annual Service  •  Road Tax  • Insurance  • Valet

The clubs thanks must go to Wayne @ Moyse Motors for his continued support in taking care of everything for us & also to Thomas Mantripp for cleaning off 18 months worth of dirt

The L&OBMBC Roadmap

Thursday 17 June  Wet driver rescue training

Thursday 24 June  RACE NIGHT 1 @ 6pm

In addition to these dates we also have.......

Rescue Crews:  First-aid Training & Dunk Rig Familiarisation, further info regarding dates/location will be published very soon. Compound work parties to prepare the equipment for the season.

Race Officials:  CPA Ratification Training - email contact will be made with you all shortly.

Members:  Please get your subscriptions paid up ASAP. We will NOT be issuing these on the 24th of June event so get in contact with our membership representative in advance of this to get yours sorted.

We are aiming to honour these dates & return to racing in June but this is obviously subject to Goverment & local guidelines/approval. Our fingers are well & truly crossed .

Rescue Compound:

Major clean up • Turn buoy preparation • Bushes trimmed and yard cleaned

Fire extinguishers serviced

​

The clubs thanks go to Malcolm Curtis, Colin Goodings, Darryl Hibbert (missing from photo), Peter Mantripp, Brian Shulver and Barry Tyrrell (also missing from photo). Some hard graft went in to (as quoted) making the compound the best it’s looked in a long time.

Our 2021 race season preparation continues 

Rescue Dory 1:

• Hull refurbishment  •  Transom replacement  •  Engine serviced  •  Electrics rewired

•  Deck refurbished

​

The clubs thanks go to Peter Mantripp, Jonny Peak and Brad Leeson for getting this looking absolutely fantastic again. Our fleet of rescue boats are all undergoing a full refit to get them ready for this years events.

It’s now 13 days until the 2021 season will kick-off
