Boxing Day 2011 - the Setley Cup Races

The Royal Lymington Yacht Club were back to Setley Pond for their annual Boxing Day event this year and once again the pond was thronged with competitors and spectators. A welcome return after 2010 when the pond was frozen and the access road was closed for repair. Home made boats and no radio control! Here are some photographs of the event.


Christmas Lunch Raffle

Thanks to snowdrifts in 2010, the second Christmas Lunch of 2011 was enjoyed by Club members at South Lawn Hotel on the 17th December. The raffle raised £153.00 in aid of the Hants and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance.


Photos from the 1970's!

New albums of photos from the Early Days of the Club and you can compare the pond Then and Now! These are part of a whole new section of the web site "About Setley Pond". You can trace the History of the Pond from Victorian times to the present - it's quite an extensive gravel pit!
