As the nights draw in we've a few club updates to share:

Winter Series

Winter dinghy racing gets underway for the 2022/23 season on Saturday 5th November with the first of the Winter Series. All winter dinghy racing events are listed on the club calendar and duties are available for volunteers to sign up on DutyMan.

Mike Rigg has very kindly offered to OOD the Winter Series - this is a great opportunity for AOOD's to learn from a very experienced race officer. We really want to develop and encourage more confident OODs for next season, so do take the opportunity now to learn the ropes (and lights and hooters!).

Everyone planning to race over the winter should take (at least one) turn volunteering for safety cover. Please sign up using DutyMan.

Please note that racing over the winter starts at 1300hrs. Those on duty should aim to be at the clubhouse by 1130hrs except the Assistant OOD, who would need to be at the clubhouse by 1230hrs.

Save the date — Prizegiving 2022

A date for your diary - the annual prizegiving will take place in the Club bar on Saturday, 26th November after racing.  We do hope you are able to attend and join with other members to celebrate a good year of Club racing and other activities. It is rumoured there will be pies.

RS200 Training Weekend

RS200 sailors are in for a treat on the weekend of Nov 26/27 when we'll play host to a training/racing weekend coached by National champion Amy Seabright. This will be a great warm-up for sailors and volunteers alike as we prepare to host the RS200 National Championships in 2023.
