Thorpe Bay Yacht Club

The General Committee are currently seeking expressions of interest in a lift for less able members to access the first floor bars. We are a long way on with several companies in this regard. We would like to hear from anyone who has a view on the matter.

We anticipate putting in a Planning Application shortly and plans will be available to view on the notice board.

John Margarson – Progress Report. No.2 – 01-06-2010

Published by Martyn Eyre under Cruising

Due to the fact that I moved house over the weekend I did not update you all on John’s progress as much as I had planned to. Unfortunately John has had to turn back some 1490km out due to severe storm damage. He is safe but no doubt disappointed.

However here are his messages leading up to and after his decision to turn back.

Another Thank You

Published by Danny Clark under Racing

I would just like to say a big thank you to Richard and Tracey Metcalf for doing a great job on the rescue on Saturday, there I was drifting fast into the land of the dinosaurs well past the coast guard station no beach for landing big waves lots of wind and the mast broken in two places, all this in a boat that weighs 27kg has the foils fixed in from the underside will not stay up right on its own and is very delicate.

Also a thank you to all the people that helped on the beach when we got back everybody was first class and this is what makes this sailing club a great place it was nice to see so many people walk out and help get the Moth onto the beach with out any damage.

Thank you !
