Where does the time fly when you are having fun!! There are only about six weeks to the end of the season. Well I thought I would get in quick to helms thinking “where am I going to get someone daft enough to sail through the winter?”. I am looking to crew on Sundays in the Winter Series. So if is anyone out there looking and is willing to take on someone who is more willing then able but who has got permission from their wife!!! Then please feel free to contact me on 07870258724.

Cadet Nationals – Pwllheli

See link for results: http://www.kbsuk.com/data/CadetEvents/data/results/mywebnh.html

Tough event sailed in the tail of hurricane Bill, so we had heavy breeze and huge seas and 2 days blown out completely.

However Jess and Alex managed 9th place from 92 entered but although their World Team standings slipped 2 places, their huge lead on the fleet meant that they retained 4th spot out of the 7 to qualify for the Worlds in Argentina – still all to play for with the last Indicator in 2 weeks at Parkstone…… watch this space.
World Team Results http://www.kbsuk.com/data/CadetEvents/data/results/mywebos.html

George and Johnny were 66th and Molly and Ben, both sailing in their 1st nationals were 50th.

I am very excited now that we have 3 cadet boats at TBYC – and judging by the comments from members in the dinghy park so are you! The UKNCCA are also very excited and keen to bring back “Squadron 17” into the fold and are keen to assist…..! So if you have an interest in joining the fleet and would like to try a Cadet please let me know – I might be able to help more than you think! (Cadets no older than 16yrs).
