Secondly, pre-entering. What is the club trying to achieve with pre-entry? Other clubs do a non-committal on-line registration, which should give a decent rough idea of numbers. I certainly won't be pre-entering before the Thursday, and even then it reduces the chances of me turning up.

We have a limit of boats for an "adult" open meeting; I think it is 200.
This limit IS imposed by our landlords Anglain Water.
Some time ago, we (GWSC) got into trouble when we went over this and got found out.
I also belieeve that the trouble in Perry last year made the club decide on Pre-entry; not sure why this is important.
Bottom line is the open is pre-entry; I did not want it to be; GWSC will have to live with people not entering until the Thursday; I'll be there whatever.
