Would any club member like to manage the club’s raft race entry. We have two rafts, but need someone to get one of them assembled, decorated, crewed and tuned for speed!
If you are that person, take a look at the Rotary Club’s website http://www.thorpebayrotaryevents.co.uk/raftrace.html
to find out what’s required and then email [email protected] to register your interest.

Club member John Boshier has, sadly, passed away leaving Mary, his wife and a son Christopher. John was a member for many years, originally joining to enable him to sail with his son. This was in a Mirror dinghy later John moved onto bigger things with a Sandhopper, in 1981 and John became a leading light in the class, becoming class captain for several years in the late Eighties.
Always a participant in weekend racing and Weekend and Weekday cruising for many years, John was sailing into his mid-eighties with Janet, our club administrator.
He will be greatly missed by family, friends and the Sandhopper class.

We have a few vacancies for our next powerboat course to be held on Thursday evening 1 June and during the day on Saturday 3 and Sunday 4 June. The cost is £50. If you are interested, please contact Ken Clarke at “[email protected]“.
Our main purpose is to train Club members to helm our safety boats and in the process help them gain the RYA Powerboat Level 2 qualification. That qualification also helps you to gain the International Certificate of Competence for powerboats.
Many thanks
