Thank you very much to RS Sailboats for the generous loan of three RS Fevas for our Cadet Week. The boats were used by our Cadets in Race group and Sharks group.

These 2012 Fevas are now availabe to purchase at the discounted rate of £ 3850.00 with everything ready to race, including trolley and cover. The boats were commissioned in July 2012 and have been used by the Estonian Team for the World Championships in Hayling Island for one week of racing.

All enquiries – reply below or to Steve Hopper.

Five children from TBYC entered the Cadet Nationals in Torquay last week. GBR 8541 Alex Warrington & Laura Lloyd (sailing in her last event due to age) finished in 24th place. GBR 9029 Matthew & Katy Lloyd finished one point behind 8541 but due to count back their place was 26th. Ben Warrington crewing for Katherine Selfe from Stone Sailing Club in 7280 came 47th. It was an excellent event with 73 boats taking part – that’s 146 inspired young people on the water in 10 very competitive races over the course of the week. The event was won by Nick Sutton & Josh Bennett in 8844 from Corinthian Otters at RCYC Burnham. For more information on the UK Cadet Class please speak to Howard Warrington, myself or see http://www.cadetclass.org.uk

The General Committee at TBYC would like to invite you to a new members evening at the Clubhouse on Thursday 16th August from 19:30 onwards.

As this is our regular cadet night the evening will be completely informal, but will give you a chance to meet other adult members and cadets.

The Commodore and some members of the General Committee will be there to welcome you and help with any queries that you may have regarding the Club facilities etc.

You are probably already involved with the sailing activities at the Club, but, if not, this will be a great opportunity to get acquainted with other members and cadets before cadet week begins.

For those of you who are novice sailors, or who have not started sailing yet, we hope to have a Pico in the dinghy park to demonstrate how to rig our Club’s favourite cadet boat.

Whether you are an active sailor or just enjoy watching the kids on the water we hope that you will come along and meet some like minded people.

I would appreciate it if you would let me know if you can attend the evening. My phone number and e-mail address are on the back of the sailing programme.

William Daly
