Hi to all Platu crew.
We have weekend racing every a month. See calendar in the OCEAN MARINA section of this site. The cost per crew member on a Platu is 1,500 baht which covers two days racing, the OCEAN MARINA entry fee, launching fees, contribution towards running costs, sails and charter fees.
Doug Smith is the co-ordinator and sends out regular emails for you to confirm attendance or not. If you are not receiving these emails contact Doug to put you on his list.
email [email protected] also on whatsapp. cell 084 908 3043
Doug takes into account your level of experience and designs each boat’s crew accordingly. The boats are super safe and will always have competent experienced skippers on board.
Racing is competitive but friendly and the intention is to give everyone more experience on the water and have fun while doing so.
