In preparation for Cadet week I will be hosting another wetsuit shop on Saturday 17th July from 2pm for approximately 1 hour.   

There will be a selection of second hand sailing clothing (mainly for cadets) including wetsuits, boots etc and you will be able to view in the front garden.

Suggested donation is £5 per item or swap (raising money for the Cadet fund).  There is also a few brand new items with tags for £15

NO shortie wetsuits donations – thank you Lindsay

Rob Manging would be happy to give his Mirror dinghy to anyone who would like to give it a little tlc.  Phone 07771 348687

We are sailing off the beach at 11:30. I hope there will be enough wind to sail. It may rain a little, that should not put us off!

Meeting on the beach a few minutes earlier for a short briefing. See you there: Andras

On Saturday 10th July there is ADVANCED (Intermediate) CADET TRAINING AND RACES with Nick.

To make these sessions productive, they are ONLY for the more experienced sailors, probably Year 8 and above and based on ‘Racing fast’.

All classes of boats are allowed and races will be using the Portsmouth Handicap system.

Briefing at 10.30 on the beach (Changed and rigged).

Leaving the beach at 11.00.

Debriefing by Cadet Rib store 40 minutes after the last boat returns.

There is growing interest in the cadet section to expand the Tera Fleet. Are there any boats not in use / grown out available for sale? Thanks: Andras

Thank you to all of you that supported and participated in the TBYC Sandhopper Open Evening Event.

I’m pleased to report that it was a great success with many new people getting out and managing to enjoy a Sandhopper for the first time. We hope to run another session later in the season, if this is of interest to you please let me know so I can get an idea of numbers.

Thanks again and happy sailing to you all.

Ladies That Launch enjoyed a fab sail on Sunday in the breeze. It was lovely to see new ladies coming to sail and socialise together, some completely new to sailing. Thank you to you all for making this a very enjoyable morning on the beach and on the water.

Even if you don’t fancy a sail, do come down when we next meet to enjoy a catch up on the beach watching our exploits on the water. We are still waiting for some lovely warm sunny weather to enjoy these sessions in style!

I am speaking to class captains to arrange access to some different boats and hope to enable a blast on the Hurricanes soon; several ladies will also enjoy a ‘Sandhopper taster’ this coming Friday. Of course we are also planning a cruiser outing, which I am sure will be accompanied with a social G&T!

We also chatted about arranging a paddle board outing to Paper Mill Lock maybe next month or in the school holidays, children welcome too. I’ll publish details soon, this will be a lovely relaxed social outing together with a picnic.

Our next social evening is planned for Thursday 15th July in the main club bar, do

come along.

If you wish to be added to the Whatsapp chat please let me know.

Registered sailors will have priority. We may have to limit numbers depending on the conditions. If really windy, sailors may be selected based on skill, experience, age, fitness and strength. We may shorten the session, or take sailors out in small groups.

See you on the water: Andras
