Sunday, 4th October, is our first day of activity at the club for the new season.
Arrive at 10am for a working bee to get things operational and a run in the rescue boats.
For those interested in a sail, bring your boat down for a casual sail to break the ice on the new season. We won't have a formal race day, but a sail will help blow the dust away.
The club aims to create a friendly, supportive space for new sailors and volunteers. You might be interested in getting on the water in support boats or helping on shore.

The club will support people new to sailing by having them crew in double-handed Pacer dinghies. Our members love and enjoy the sport of sailing and would like to share that with interested people.

As a footnote this year is the 65th year of sailing. Lets make it a good season.
