If you want to choose your duties online you have until end of Sunday 10th Feb to do so. After that I’ll be allocating duties to fill in the gaps for those who have not already done it.

Thanks to all those who have used the online option so far and those who have send me dates directly. Any feedback on this years approach is always welcome.

Please see my earlier post on 30 Jan for more details.

With the start of the 2019 season only 2 months away and the sailing programme now published I’ll be putting names against duties during February to complete the calendar in DutyMan.

For those that did not take the opportunity to pick your duties at the Club & Sailing AGMs you now have an opportunity over the next 2 weeks to pick duties online.

You should receive an email from [email protected] today with a link and instructions on how to do this.

Prefer not to do it online? – then simply email me at [email protected] with dates you can’t do and I’ll allocate duties for you.

If you have not received your email (check your spam folder?) or have not done duties before and would like to get involved (no experience necessary) please contact me at [email protected]

After a short break, the Last Thursday in the Month Dinghy Nights are back, starting this Thursday.

These nights give like minded club members a chance to come together and have a chat about the important things. We have a plan of areas that through the year that will have guest presenters on some evenings.

Come along this week, partners are welcome and show your support, which may also give us a chance to get the Kitchen open in coming months.

Saturday the 2nd Feb is very close, so plan to join the Sprint 15 TT. NOR and Entry Form now available.
