Henry Petty-Mayor has sent the following You Tube links to some footage of the Cadet Racing last week.

Take a look! It’s very good to see how well you’re pointing and the effect of “dirty air” from the boat in front. There’s some very nice sailing going on from our Cadets!

The TBYC Endeavour Trophy – Saturday afternoon – 14th August

We have 5 teams who have accepted the challenge this year to compete for the “best of the best” in a one day 4 race series.

The competitors are:

Defenders: Peter Thompson and Mark Dell

Sprint – Chris Tillyer and Steve Healy

Finn – Lawrence Crispin and Allen Burrell

Hurricane – Paul Palmer and Alex Farrall

Cadet – TBC after Cadet Week

The Cadet Entry will be the overall winners of the race group at this week’s Cadet Week.

We hope there will be good support for the event and members are welcome to spectate from ribs or displacement boats after club racing.

The prize giving will be immediately after sailing and before the “end of Cadet week party”
