Briefing at 14.45 (changed and rigged, meet on the sea wall). Leaving the beach at 15.00.
This activity is aimed at the more experienced Cadet Sailors to develop their Racing skills. Sessions include exercises to improve boat handling, sailing a set course, starting and finishes with a series of short races.
CADETS ARE TO COMPLETE THE FULL SESSION, coming back during a session is not an option due to safety reasons. Parents are encouraged to help with preparation, recovery and on-the-water.
Please complete the short form to register your child for this session. Click here
(This allows me to prepare the Race sheet and save so much time on the day)

After school sailing Thursday or Friday at 16:00
16-17 June 2022
With Nick we are considering arranging sailing for cadets.
Please, let me know if you are interested.
The weather is good, and there will be enough water for a sailing session each day.
Any sailor in any boat could come who can sail independently (at least tack around and stay in the sailing area). This is not a learn to sail course.
Experienced sailors may wish us to set up a practice race course and may ask for racing drills.
For less experienced sailors we will provide coaching and supervision.
The aim of the session is to enjoy sailing in a sunny weather and have fun.
I will ask sailors to remain in the agreed sailing area to ensure appropriate safety cover.
Parents, we will be grateful for your help with safety.
Please, let me know if you are interested:

This Sunday 12th June we have a Cadet session on the water.

This is open to all Cadets who can sail a triangular course (Beat and Reach), but do not need to be a champion……yet!
This is to cover Andras’s session, as he cannot attend this weekend. My plan is to have some training, a couple of games and two short races that everyone can enjoy. For safety, Cadet are required to complete the full session and not come in early.
09.15 Briefing on Sea wall. (Please be changed and rigged).
09.30 Leave Beach
Parental help is needed please.
You should try to move your boat to the beach before 8.45 because of the Southend Half Marathon. See TBYC E-Mail and post.

The RNLI Pursuit Race has a different start time for each class of boat, starting from 13:30 and finishes two hours later at 15:30 . The idea is the boats should all finish about the same time based on their PN classification.
If you want to enter and your boat class is not listed below please contact me at [email protected] by 10am on Friday to get a start time.
The idea of the race is to support the RNLI and a collection box will be on the club bar for entrants (and anyone) to donate whatever they like.
