Robin FosterTaylor with his company Primo Insurance has committed a huge sum of money for the new addition to the Sail Training Fleet. Robin a lifelong supporter of sailing and great sailing competitor can see the opportunity a Sandhopper gives the TBYC Sail Training programme by basically offering the chance to learn to sail without necessarily getting wet. The Sandhopper with its standard rig of main sail, jib and traditional spinnaker offers all the aspects of sail trimming which once learnt the skills can be transferred to all manor of craft of all sizes.
Many thanks Robin for this hugely generous donation giving sailing and racing opportunity to so many for years to come.

Sandhoppers and cruisers are lifting out this weekend. The dinghy park and slipway will be closed to all but designated personnel, whilst the operation is going on. If you are asked to leave an area please do so, in order to keep the process as quick, efficient and safe as possible.  It takes only a few hours each day, so you will have access to these areas later in the day.

Our prize giving begins at 7.3o pm this coming Saturday. If you’d like a fish and chips supper to sustain you through the ceremony you need to buy you ticket today! Let’s see all 101 deserving winners in the Club on Saturday evening to receive their award and recognition of their acheivement.
