We need you to help us keep the club ship shape. Jobs need doing in:

On the day look for Gary Burrows or Nick Cotgrove who will help you find your job.
We would all appreciate a little of  your spare time from 10:00 so we can all enjoy the sailing without worrying about the jobs that need to be done.

Parent and Cadet 2016 Season Briefing

This Friday at 6-7pm we are going to hold a short briefing for Parents and Cadets.  We will go through opportunities for new members, Friday Cadet night, training, club boats, Pico racing and Cadet club racing. You will get a chance to put names to faces and meet those people who have volunteered to run this year’s events.  Cadets will get an introduction to cadet night from older Cadets, be taught what and where they can play, and most importantly get a chance to meet and socialise with the other cadets. I hope to see you there and aim to give you the confidence to get involved and help make this year an enjoyable and rewarding one for the TBYC Cadets.

Food

Our caterer Dave will be providing burgers, hot dogs and chips so why not get a quick bite to eat this Friday.

CADET Racing

This weekend sees the start of the 2016 racing season for Adults and Cadets.  This year, every club series race will also be a cadet race.  All participating cadets will start from the Committee Boat on the second start and race a windward-leeward course, first beating to the Inflatable Cadet Buoy, then running down to the leeward mark (last course number on the back of the Committee Boat).  You will continue to lap until hooted by the race officer team.  Remember to sign on as a CADET in the Bosuns hut.

I have a complete hobie 14 which I took on as a project last year thinking it was worth more than it is. It will never win any races but it is a great beginners boat/beach boat. I have spent £200 on repairs to the trampoline and mast. I have also filled and painted the hulls and still have enough paint for another coat. The only thing it needs is a new cross bar for the tillers.   At the moment it is dismantled in my garden. I am quite happy to put it back together for a prospective buyer. £300 is all I want for it. It is in Leigh. Steve Healy – 07821 085700.

Many thanks to Tony Padbury & Janet for a brilliant evening, the questions were excellent and it was great to see the teams from age 15 to 80 all enjoying a lovely time together.

We should do it more then once a year, lots of very positive feedback in the boat park this morning.

Thanks again from the fleet and friends.
