Sailing AGM – Wednesday 8th November
Hi all racing sailors!
Your AGM will be held next Wednesday 8th November.
Please see agenda here – TBYC Sailing AGM Agenda 2022
Essentially it is there for you to have your say and feedback to the Sailing Committee on how the 2023 season was for you.
Courses, Starts, Calendar, Trophy Races etc.
Often there is a good discussion but remember if a vote is taken to change something, you need to be there to vote.
If you have any topics that you would like to discuss, by all means let myself or Mark Dell know and we can add to the agenda. There will of course be an AOB session at the end.
Hope to see you next week.
Regards
Howard Warrington Mark Dell
Rear Commodore Sailing Secretary

Post Lift In
Now that the lift in is complete, as always there is some “shunting” to do. This is down to the owners of dinghies to arrange.
A very large number of boats, particularly: Picco’s, Laser’s and some Tera’s are not identifiable. If you didn’t come and move your boat as requested, you may find yourself on the racks or hemmed in a little. If you have paid only for storage, then please try and use a top rack or leave you boat on the outside edges of the park to allow those sailing better access.
There is plenty of room for dinghies to be stored. During the lift in, many boats needed to be moved. It is your responsibility to check that you are happy with where you boat is.
We have 2 visiting Hurricanes and space is reserved for them among the Hurricane rows. Please don’t block those.
If you have not paid to store your boat, please remove it immediately.

Dinghy park – yellow marked space
Polite request: I have paid for a space in the dinghy park for my cruiser and have marked a spot for it. Highlighted by 4 tyres painted yellow and the ground painted yellow. There is a sandhopper in front of this space on a trailer with a blue cover. If your boat is placed in this space I may remove it when my cruiser arrives by trailer in a couple of weeks time. Thank you for your co- operation.
Thank you, Scott James, Sandhopper Class Capt.

Winter Sailing / Storage
The deadline for applying has now passed. Any late payments will incur the £20 late payment fee.
For all those who have not requested storage, could you please remove your boats this week. We have the cruiser and Sandhopper lift in at the weekend.
For those just wanting storage with boats such as Pico’s and Lasers, please would you find an available rack to lift them onto. This also needs doing before the weekend please.
We will be conducting a dinghy park audit after the weekend.
many thanks

Applications need to be received by 15th October. Boats not being stored for winter need to be removed no later than the 15th October.
