Congratulations to Chris Boshier and Struan Wallace who won this weekends racing.
Chris battled testing conditions, capsizing twice before winning the Leigh SC Brass Monkey after 30 years of competition. Well done to Peter Thompson and Chris Clarke who were the only boat to sail round from TBYC, a challenge in itself.
Struan came out on top today after a competitive 2014 Frozen Sheets Trophy race. Struan won by 6 seconds, with a total of 45 boats enjoying the start of TBYC racing in 2014.

The kitchen will be open for pre race breakfast/brunch and prize giving will be held in the main bar as soon as possible after the race finishes. Refreshments of Rum Punch and Mince Pies will be served in the Bosuns Hut.

A reminder that it is important that everything in the Dinghy Park is tied or padlocked down. Unfortunately this shows how easy others boats can be damaged. Please watch the video in full screen and you will see other boats lifting on their ties. Please respond to John if it is your sailboard.

Found these sites very interesting for the Tidal Surge this morning. the Surge has been quoted as the largest since records began, eclipsing 1953 so it was pleasing to see a 3 foot gap between the top of the current Sea wall and the crest of the waves at 2am this morning. 2 beach huts were dislodged from their supports with one being destroyed. Amazing how many club members and rest of the public were up at 2am!

Also for those interested in the Proposed Sea Wall Build there is an exhibition at Uncle Toms Cabin this weekend Saturday and Sunday where the BBC will be interviewing and Broadcasting 11 am Sunday. I know there are alot of members who would like to know more and see for themselves so they can make informed decisions.
The quoted metric of 1 in 200 year risk happened in the early hours of this morning with Shoebury common and Thorpe Bay Sea Wall passing the test with flying colours.
hope the above is of interest,
cheers
