Dear Cadets and Parents,

Next Pico race 8th of May, Sunday, start at 13:20
Proposed meeting time is 12:00 in the dinghy park.
Similar structure, as previously.
Demonstration of close hauled sailing by the jib on the grass, if enough wind.
Demonstration of lying to (standing still).
Otherwise dry practice.
I am thinking about a trapezoid course (modified triangular course).
If the weather is trying, we may stick to our gate course.

Race Committee

29th April 2016

There are always lots of jobs cropping up that need doing to keep the club house in order. I believe we can undertake some of these without needing to call in contractors. Instead of leaving all these jobs until a working party it would be nice to get them done as they arise. So if anyone out there from a trades background or DIY expert feels that they may be able to help in any way it would be great to hear from you.

I only have small jobs in mind, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Please drop me an email  [email protected].

Many thanks.
