In recognition of their outstanding work and effort in the personal watercraft sector the Solent Skiers Association were presented with the Mic Randle Award 2010 at the Tullett Prebon London International Boat Show yesterday (10 January).

Presented by the Personal Watercraft Partnership (PWP), the Mic Randle Award is given to those who have contributed most to the safe development of the sport. Chairman Andrew Norton congratulated the Solent Skiers Association (SSA) for raising tens of thousands of pounds for charity in the past six years describing them as a ‘model of a club.’     

Theresa Stubbs, chairperson of the Solent Skiers Association said:  

“We are really surprised and honoured to have won the Mic Randle Award. We enjoy keeping the slipway open and setting up our events but we couldn’t have done it without our members or the local support we receive.”  

The Solent Skiers Association protects the interests of PWC users launching from the Daedalus Slipway at Lee-on-the-Solent, Hampshire.  

The Mic Randle Award was created in memory of Mic Randle, one of the originators and pioneers of the PWC Training Course who sadly died in 2003. 

The biggest PW club event in Britain is back for 2010.

The Solent Skiers Association (SSA) committee has already started the hard work that it takes to organise the event, and are planning on taking 60 personal watercraft plus riders clockwise around the Isle of Wight for charity.

The SSA has chosen a new charity for 2010, Help for Heroes - an organisation formed to help those who have been wounded in Britain's current conflicts, and are hoping to raise in excess of £5,000 again.

Application forms are going to be available from mid-March 2010 and priority will be given to renewing 2009 members.
