Dear Cadets and Parents,

I would like to invite keen sailors (and well behaving parents if keen) to the next Sailor’s Meeting this Friday 28/Sept 2018.
Meeting upstairs in the club house.
With decent starts, good windward speed our team is getting close to the the stage where it makes sense to talk about advanced sailing skills, like mark rounding.

I hope to see you there

Kind regards: Andras

Twenty TBYC Cadets in twelve boats competed in the Matt Dear Trophy at Thames Estuary Yacht Club on Saturday. This prodigious trophy, in memory of Matthew Dear who tragically lost his life after taking Anabolic steroids, is to raise the awareness of the dangers to young people.

The Cadets hugged the start line and fought for a prime positions, making a good start. After an unfortunate port-starboard collision, Adam and Robin emerged 2nd and 3rd, both in Lasers. Meanwhile the RS Fevas were battling through the fleet soon gaining 4th 5th and 6th positions. Those Cadets in Picos were fighting the waves holding their positions as the winds increased. By the end of the race our TBYC Cadets gained 2nd (Adam), 3rd (Luke and Sam), 4th (Robin), 5th (Hannah and Lydia), 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th 10th, 11th, 14th and 16th out of 29 boats.

Although we did not get first place, Adam held onto his 2nd place throughout the race and received his well deserved trophy and gave a vote of thanks on behalf of the visitors.   Well done Cadets!!

This annual charity race was first held in 2010 in memory of Matthew Dear, who tragically passed away in 2009. The aim of the charity is to raise awareness of the dangers of Anabolic steroids and appearance and performance enhancing drugs. See www.matthewdearfoundaion.co.uk for more information.

Thanks to the Race Officer, Assistant Race Officer and six safety crew members who turned up early this morning dressed head to toe in what could only be described as Ocean Wet Gear. All to support club racing in what would have been testing conditions. As Duty Officer is was great to see such commitment from this group of members doing their bit for TBYC.

Tickets are now available behind the bar for the Cadet Halloween Party on Saturday 27th October 2028, 6-8pm
£5.00 per child includes disco with fun and games, sweet treats and squash. This is a members only event.

Hi All,

Not sure if the club has been made aware but I recieved an email from the RSA forum stating that Boatacs at Chalkwell Park is to close due to retirement.

For those interested the email stated they are clearing all stock at reduced prices.

Sad after so long and now will have to drive to Wallasea Island.. !!!
