Hi all, here’s the SI’s for the winter, for those of you that can’t be bothered to read it, courses and fleets are the same as last year

All Pico owners must move their boats out of the dinghy park today. Cruiser lift out is tomorrow. If you intend to keep your boat at the club for the Winter you need to pay and move it onto the racks. If you have not paid you boat will be moved to clear space for lift out and you may not be able to keep it here over the winter. Please message me your intentions as soon as possible. Boats will be start to be moved in the next half hour.

Hi All, It’s that time of year when the sailing season is over and the winter series will begin (after the Cruiser and Sandhopper liftout 21/22nd October). As per the Club program, all dinghies should have vacated the dinghy park in order for these manoeuvres take place. Specifically rows E,F,G.
If you own a pico or laser and wish to pay for storage for the winter please contact your class captain to discuss rack storage and how you will put your boat on the racks. It is YOUR OWN responsibility to ensure your boats are moved.
