We have just completed our third Buoyed Up of the year, the children were from Brightlingsea Primary School, we finally had 3 days of great weather and gentle winds, all of the children were a real credit to the school, we sailed all 3 days and in between sailing the children caught 342 crabs! (They counted them). The smiles on the children’s faces and the constant laughter makes this such a great experience. This sailing adventure would not be possible without the Sir Thomas Lipton Foundation, the charity gets children on the water and gives them such a fantastic experience. We look forward to welcoming our next school in a couple of days. Thanks as always to all of our instructors, you really are a great team to work with.

It is with great sadness that we report the passing of former BSC Commodore Nigel Edmunds who died on Monday 1 June. Nigel played a very active role in club life for many years, including leading Tuesday night cadets for some years. Our thoughts and prayers are with Nigel's children Steff and Gavin, his ex-wife Jackie and their family and friends at this most difficult time.
Members are invited to attend Nigel's funeral which will take place at 10.15am on Friday 3 July at Weeley Crematorium and to join the family to remember him at BSC afterwards.
