Due to the Sandhopper lift on Saturday and the Cruiser lift on Sunday the Dinghy park will be out of bounds to all but essential members on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Please avoid this area during these times for you own safety and that of other members.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Nick Elmore
Commodore

For safety reasons,  please make sure you complete any other boat movements before 2.00 pm Sunday 24th March and stay clear of the boat park and slip from then until the lift-in is complete.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Cruising Section Secretary (for Rear Commodore, Cruising)

The Cruising Section is hosting a Quiz in the bar this Tuesday 12th March, and ALL MEMBERS are welcome.

It would be great if some of the other sailing sections got together a team – usually 4 – 6; we’d love to see more of you Sandhoppers, Fevas, Picos, Cats, Finns, Lasets, Sprints etc.

But you don’t need a team – just come by yourself and we’ll find you (and you’ll find us) convivial company!

There is no need to book; entry is £2 head which pays for the prizes.  (No food provided so eat first.)

Our quizzes are always challenging, interesting and fun and an enjoyable, healthily competitive evening is had by all.

(Sorry for the short notice…  see Cruising Sailing Dates  for forthcoming events. )

cheers

Bill (for Derek, Rear-Commodore Cruising)

Hello everyone,

Just a quick reminder if you are looking to lunch at the club on Sunday for Mothers Day, to book a table fast as we have a lot of bookings already but we wouldn’t like any of our mummies missing out on our yummy Carvery on their special day.

Please ring me ‘Lisa’ on my new work number 07851759265 and I’ll reserve your table for you.

There are 3 meats on the Carvery this Sunday which are: honey roasted gammon, roast chicken and stuffed pork belly with all our usual trimmings from 12:30 until 2:30. Also as a wee treat for our special mums the chefs at Fuud ltd have made special homemade choc’s which I’m sure I will have to taste test!

The prices are as follows: 1 course £8.00, 2 courses £10.00 or 3 courses for £12.50.

Hope to see you all Sunday.

Kind regards Lisa @fuud ltd.
