To all members! We have now recommenced racing activities on Sundays. Why not get the wetsuit out of the wardrobe and get back on the water? We will be competing for the many club trophies once again, more of which to follow.

For all of our recently trained members from our RYA courses, there will be special "Novices" series with a trophy up for grabs. A great opportunity to continue to develop your new found skills and get out on the water. I will post more information in the coming weeks.

Lloyd - Rear Commodore GSC

A challenging but satisfying day for sailing with wind speeds of 2 gusting 4 from the North West. Two races were conducted on a match racing basis with Ian, Martin and our latest graduate from the sail school, Joe, all taking to the water in a fleet of Streakers. Martin took honours in the first, with Ian coming in second and Joe completing the podium in third.

The Second race was a reversal of fortunes for Ian and Martin after an uncharacteristic mistake on the line leaving Martin at the back of the fleet. This mistake allowed Joe (our novice) to take the initial lead into the first mark. However a shift in wind direction caught Joe out at the second mark allowing the experienced Ian and Martin back in to close the result out Ian, Martin, Joe coming in 1,2,3 resepctively.

All in all a good days racing with lots being learned by Joe, certainly one watch in the future.

Thanks to Lloyd for providing safety cover and stepping in as OOD for the day.

Remember there are trophies up for grabs this season so why not come down on a Sunday and get involved?
