From tomorrow, All Dinghies and Catamarans that have paid for this seasons storage can bring their boats into the Dinghy Park. With no main access to the Clubhouse, viewing the printed plan cannot be public so it is located inside the building within the area of the back door, same access for toilets.
You can also review online using the link that has been in the the recent email and posted within the TBYC Facebook Group.
The Dinghy Park plan is always an active document with boats being bought and sold. In an effort to keep the document up to date, if you arrange to swap with someone and your boat is in a different space, please let me know by emailing [email protected] or commenting on the google doc.
As you know the funeral of the Duke of Edinburgh will take place during racing on Saturday afternoon. Whilst some sporting events have been cancelled we believe that Prince Phillip – a keen sailor himself, would not have wanted us to stop. You can almost hear him say “just bloody get on with it”…
We have therefore decided that racing will go ahead and the Race Management Team will endeavour to have the first race finished before 15:00. This may mean it might be a bit short.
At 15:00 there will be a long blast from the Committee Boat’s starting hooter, signalling the start of the Nation’s One Minute Silence. The Ensign will be lowered for the duration. The same will happen on shore for those enjoying the Club’s “Car Park Bar”.

We have a full programme of training and races organised this season for our Cadets, as published in the Handbook & Programme of Events 2021.
On most Sundays there is Cadet Training and Races for Cadets of all ages. It is suitable for sailors who can sail a triangular course, sail to the training area safely and willing to listen and learn.
On six Saturdays there is Cadet Advanced Training. 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
