[UK CatChat] MDI LOCH NESS MONSTER RACE, 2007 IS ON!!! £500 cash Prize!!!!!!!!!!!

[Chris Browning]

Long Distance fans,

Thanks to the people at Marine Design International, our title sponsors for 
2007, The MDI Loch Ness Monster Race will happen on August 25th this year.

DID I MENTION £500 CASH PRIZE?

Further information will follow, including NOR's, fees, website allowing 
pre-registration, accommodation details etc, but here is a flavour of the 
event:


This is the UK's longest Freshwater Long Distance Cat Race at 50 miles long. 
It is thought to be the longest in Europe too.

The ultimate 50 mile windward / leeward course, running 25 miles up, and 25 
miles down the famous Loch Ness.

It's only a lake? Loch Ness holds more water than every river and lake in 
England and Wales put together. Fact! It's a biggy!


The race is run from the pub (where else) in the village of Dores at the 
North East end of the Loch, just 8 miles from Inverness and the A9. THe race 
starts and finishes off the beach adjacent to the pub.

There is no sailing Club on Loch Ness. SNECCA, acting with Peterhead Sailing 
CLub bring a full management and rescue team to the event, capitalising on 
the huge success of the inaugural event in 2004.

The race course uniquely has a road around the course following the 50 mile 
route, with the Loch allowing competitors within feet of the shore due to 
the sheer sides, giving  as tunning spectator event. For families and 
hangers on not keen on watching the action, the Drumnadrochit Highland Games 
is held on the same day on the banks of the Loch.

Too far to drive? Get someone to drive a multi-boat trailer up and take an 
Easyjet flight to Inverness!
Distance is no excuse. 2004 saw a competitor from Spain. He is planning to 
return this year!
2004 winner is threatening to return to defend his title, although on a 
different weapom.
