Many thanks to all of those who turned up on saturday for the work party, we manged to get a huge amount done, so many names to mention ( including Bertie who I think is still locked in the new cuoboard) but you know who you are, although a special mention to Sam Husk, Paul Spratt and John payne for heading up various sections and making the day run so well.
we are so lucky to have such a wealth of gifted talent to call upon in our club.
Looking forward to the good weather and a fun summer of sailing.
Thank you all again

Icicle Series – Change to published Sailing Instructions
In accordance with Rule 3 & 5 Changes to Sailing Instructions / schedule of races
Please be advised that Icicle 5 on Sunday 20th March will remain at the previously published start time of 11:00hrs.
A second race on Sunday 20th March will then commence as soon as practical after conclusion of Icicle 5.
This is by popular demand to replace Icicle 2 which was not sailed due to unsuitable weather conditions.
