On Sunday July 28th there was no racing because no one had volunteered to be Race Officer. However with an early morning high tide and 2 mph Easterly wind the Junior members were keen to have a go at paddleboarding before their sailing. We were visited by a contingent from Alexandra Yacht Club and Thames Estuary Yacht Club who spent an enjoyable few hours at the bar with Ken Sykes. With the bright sun bringing a sea breeze, 16 people signed up to go on the water as the wind increased to 12mph for a fun sail, including the foiling Nacra 20 ,with Kevin and Dave. Derek also had a fast cat experience with Scott on a Dart 18. Sunday was the second day of the .Powerboat 2 course for Paul, Gina and Darren instructed by Mark and Lincoln. A Safety Boat course will take place on 17th and 18th August and has one place left for £150. Thanks go to Ken, Sarah and Ethan who made all of this possible.
