The Convoy Swerves
Thanks to West Wittering Windsurfing Club for one day only, if you pitch up in the club house and say “I am with the Fat Face Convoy” you will get a bib and be able to sail for free all day (you will need to pay parking).
So same idea – pull a sicky and come and join us.
We will be down there from midday so come and join us for a warm up to the Fat Face night windsurf.
