The sandhopper fleet has been lost, someone must know where they have gone?

A fantastic day this Sunday with perfect sailing conditions and only four arrived, Nore race last weekend and only three!

They must be somewhere, perhaps they have all gone to the dark side and joined the sprint fleet?

Please help and find the lost souls of a once fantastic race fleet that have been lost.

If you cannot find them, please feel free to take charge of their empty boats and go sailing. They will never know.

Thank you

Friday First Aid

• not sure where the club first aid kits are or what to expect to find in them?
• don’t know what to do if you or a child has an accident on the beach, in the water or even at home?
• then come down to Cadet Night on Friday evening at 7pm.

David Elkington is our Cadet Week First Aid officer and he is generously giving up his time to share his professional expertise with us. Dave and his volunteers will be running sessions for adults and children on basic first aid guidance and advice to keep us all safe on the beach this summer.  He will also go through the locations of the clubs first aid kits and what to expect to find in them.

Why not come down earlier, enjoy the food DD’s has put on for us, menu posted below. DD’s will serve food from 6pm.  See you Friday.
