End of season 2022 volunteers dinner

Monday, 28th November saw the very welcome return of an End of Season celebration for the volunteers after a gap of three years because of Covid. More than 90 people gathered at Chipstead to enjoy a great evening, with the Clubhouse beautifully transformed and a stage set up by Peter and Jayne Coulcher, ready for the ventriloquist entertainment provided after dinner by Jimmy Tamley, ably assisted by two unsuspecting ‘volunteers’. Big thanks to them; to Faye Stanley, David McKee and all who collectively prepared and served a wonderful meal; to Mike McKenzie for co-ordinating the event; to David Barker for the photos and, finally, to Anne Frewer, Steve Farmer and Bob Fisher for their generous liquid contributions!

The Launch of the New Hansa 2.3

On Thursday 4th August 2022, Wealden saw the launch of the newest addition to the fleet, a Hansa 2.3 (AKA The Pink Blancmange), kindly donated by one of our clients, Anne Frewer. Photos taken by David Barker.

A message from Mike Mackenzie, one of our trustees:

“A big thank you to Anne Frewer who donated a “Pink Blancmange” to Wealden Sailability. No, not a pudding but a pretty, “pink” of course, Hansa 2.3 single seater boat. Tom raced that while Anne used her trusty orange boat to go head to head with him, it was great to watch the racing from the pontoon.

Before the racing started however, Anne launched the new boat with a bottle of suitably PINK bubbly and wished it well for Wealden sailors.”

Before her commission into the fleet, Helen Fairfax (suitably in her pink attire) took The Pink Blancmange out for sea trials.
