Good Luck to the TBYC Cadets this weekend at Burnham.
The 3rd and last selector to decide the “GBR Cadet Class World Team” takes place on the Crouch. They have had one event at Rutland which was becalmed and only one race completed. The 2nd was in Poole Harbour which was windy and challenging conditions. Alex Warrington and Ellie Wootton, his crew from Waldringfield SC, came a close 2nd missing out winning by 1 point and currently lying 2nd overall in the selector series.
This weekend will also see Matt and Katie Lloyd and Ben Warrington crewing for Stone SC’s Katherine Selfe fight it out to get themselves up the leader board.
As from 7am on Friday 24th May the boat park main gates will be not be available for vehicular access due to the RS Feva Nationals which are being held at TBYC. Access to all parking areas will be via the public car park gate to the east of the club. Vehicular access will revert to normal at 5pm on Tuesday 28th May.
The car park around the club building will also be closed for the erection of a Marquee with catering and camping to the rear.
We are sorry for Any inconvenience this may cause but due to the large amount of young sailors we will be expecting this weekend , it is imperative that we create a car free zone to ensure the safety of all members and guests.
It is so easy to step on one of the clubs ribs and forget to attach the kill cord, please follow this link which will hopefully be a positive use of this recent tragedy. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cornwall-22560652
Thanks to the power boat training team at TBYC headed by Ken Clarke with Tony Clarke and Toby Speller for keeping the safety standards of TBYC support rib drivers at the highest level with the RYA training.
Derek’s talks on navigation have proved to be very popular, so he will be giving the third one on Thursday 23rd May at 7pm. It is intended for year 7 cadets, and above, and will last for about 45 minutes. It’s looking likely that there will be a cruise to Queenborough, for those cadets who have attended, to practise what they have learned.
