Lesley and I will be away on 3rd June so unable to do Race Officer and Assistant. We are looking to swap these duties. Given up trying to work out how to post a message as simple as this on DutyMan, hence this posting! 01702 476734.

Just a reminder that we have a work party this sunday from 9am. plenty to do so please come along and help.

yes it is April the 1st but this is not a joke.

see you there

Throughout the winter we have run organised coaching on Cadet nights, this would not have been possible without the expert guidance of our coaches all of whom provided sessions which were all extremely useful, interesting, educational and above all fun.

I would like to thank Rupert, Mike Thomason, Ken Herve, Mark Petty-Mayor, Johnno Gillies and Alex Farrell for delivering such excellent sessions.

We are finalising plans for the next few months – which we hope will now include outdoor and water based activities.

The final winter session is this Thursday, Mike will be outlining how to rig a Pico and no doubt explaining how to tune it to ensure you stand the best chance of winning TOPS races this year.

We look forward to seeing you then.

Mike

Thanks to Struan wallace for the footage

Thanks to Tony Padbury, Paul clark and co for stepping in to act as race officers in place of those who couldn’t be bothered to turn up or find a replacement.

TBYC sail training on SS4 expanding our training program for adults and cadets.

This weekend will see all the Cruisers lifted into the water. All members are asked to avoid the dinghy park during the lift in. The Dinghy Park will be closed to all but key personnel to ensure the lift in is carried out as efficiently as possible.
