Cowes Yacht Haven Marina, Isle of Wight.

PROGRAMME
This is a once-in-a-lifetime event, celebrating half a century (and a bit, given that we couldn't do it five years ago because of Covid) since Fishers were first launched and enjoyed by generations of owners. Do be there!
Dear Members.
I am delighted to tell you that the response to the Fisher's 55th event has been fantastic and is expected to be spectacular, with around 25 Fishers in attendance. All we need now is for the weather to be kind to us. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your support, and I look forward to meeting you all there.
If you have not already booked, there is still time to participate in this event, with space currently available. However, time is running out, and the deadline for new applications is June 20th. No new booking will be made after this date.
This is because the events planned for the week are all pre-booked, so it will not be possible to include late bookings and also arrivals on the day at this event.
For more details and booking forms, please email me, Geoff Brown, soonest
