Another thankyou Ty
Saturdays race was thanks once again to Ty Mckeown stepping in at the last minute. Ty is now no stranger to the Committee boat after several weekends where he has given up his own sailing at the last minute to enable the racing take place. Very big thankyou, also thanks to Mason Burrage for volunteering at the top of the slipway.
The Race Officer position is seemingly a daunting position but in reality if you can start a race in a boat you should be able to run the race. A great way to get the experience and enjoyment from the Com Boat is to volunteer as a helper either on the day or prefferably before by contacting the duty officer or the race officer.
Counting down the days to this weekend coming for the TBYC Regatta, should be a great event with all the behind the scenes organisation for on the water and the evening B-B-Q and entertainment, cheap as chips get your tickets early. We also have visiting Hurricanes/fast cats for the Chris Hull Memorial Trophy and Moths if the conditions are just-o-so-perfect…. remember Danny and Co posing on the front green for more time than they actually sailed last year…. well thats half the enjoyment of owning a Foiling Moth apparantly….
So rules are if you have a boat in the park or Sandhopper on the Mooring you are expected to be racing unless you are volunteering. Not interested in any excuses for our flagship event.
see you at the weekend,
Peter
