Club Coaching
Saturday 27th, 10am arrival time
 Saturday is the start of club coaching for new and developing non squad Opti LTR sailors, Starling newbies and adults. For the Opti LTR sailors we have some great news as FBYC welcomes Matilde Fabbri to the coaching team to coach the LTR group from October onwards. She's a top Italian Laser sailor and will bring with her a relaxed, chocolate fuelled, fun program for young sailors who are wanting to improve from LTS level this season. So, all you budding Opti sailors who aren't quite ready for the Squad, come on down for a boat check and a quick sail on Saturday ... the forecast is looking good!
