Thank you very much to RS Sailboats for the generous loan of three RS Fevas for our Cadet Week. The boats were used by our Cadets in Race group and Sharks group.

These 2012 Fevas are now availabe to purchase at the discounted rate of £ 3850.00 with everything ready to race, including trolley and cover. The boats were commissioned in July 2012 and have been used by the Estonian Team for the World Championships in Hayling Island for one week of racing.

All enquiries – reply below or to Steve Hopper.

A fantastic reception at the Island Yacht Club was given to our cadets, they all had a fantastic time thanks to the superb effort and warm welcome from Valerie Deane and the members of IYC.

Well done to Peter Thompson & Rupert Snow from the sandhopper fleet for spotting one of our cruisers in trouble drifting in very windy conditions with 5 people aboard, They swam out to seasafe 3 and effected a rescue and tow back to the mooring.

TBYC are very lucky to have such diligent and competent people who are willing to take it upon themselves to help others.

Thank you also to the RNLI who  attended and assisted with securing the vessel and bringing the crew ashore .
