This weeked will see the RS Feva Class Bolle sposored Grand Prix series at our shores. It should be a very interesting weekend for us to hold. I would urge parents and cadets to come and see this event as it will be a good show for the club and the class.
The Club Feva is still available for this weekend. If anyone wants to sail then please contact me on 0770 2299555.
Good luck to all TBYC sailors in this event.

Hi all,
On Thursday April 19th, Graham Slack and one of his colleagues from the Southend Lifeboat Station have kindly agreed to give a presentation about the service the RNLI provide in Southend, including some of the more interesting services they have carried out!
This should be very entertaining for Cadets and their parents so I hope as many of you as possible can attend.
The presentation will start at 7pm in the Commodores bar.

A huge Thank You to Johnno Gillies for organising the Easter Sunday taster session for the younger kids of the club.
It was good to see kids out in Picos, Teras and Oppies.
All kids managed over two hours of sailing round courses and practice starts.
Well Done

Dear all,
We are progressing well with Cadet week plans. This year we are launching a new group but want to ensure we have sufficient RIB and Support boat cover.
Currently we require an additional 2 RIBS.
Should you know of anyone who would be willing to lend a suitable craft to the club for the week of the 20th August – on the understanding that it would only be helmed by experienced and qualified personnel – please can you forward their details.
Thank you,
Mike

Throughout the winter we have run organised coaching on Cadet nights, this would not have been possible without the expert guidance of our coaches all of whom provided sessions which were all extremely useful, interesting, educational and above all fun.
I would like to thank Rupert, Mike Thomason, Ken Herve, Mark Petty-Mayor, Johnno Gillies and Alex Farrell for delivering such excellent sessions.
We are finalising plans for the next few months – which we hope will now include outdoor and water based activities.
The final winter session is this Thursday, Mike will be outlining how to rig a Pico and no doubt explaining how to tune it to ensure you stand the best chance of winning TOPS races this year.
We look forward to seeing you then.

This weekend will see all the Cruisers lifted into the water. All members are asked to avoid the dinghy park during the lift in. The Dinghy Park will be closed to all but key personnel to ensure the lift in is carried out as efficiently as possible.
