Race 2 Summer Consistency
It was a busy 2 weeks for us. Race 2 for the summer consistency went ahead successfully despite the threat of distant rain clouds. With winds progressing to about 18-20 knots at the end of the 3rd race, many of the green fleet retired after the 1st race. Kudos to the new kids, its not easy starting out when its raining and choppy!
Discover Sailing
We had not much luck weather wise for Discovery Sailing, 21st October. Rain and wind >30knts lead to the club cancelling all on water activities. However, we set up a few boats in the Marina Hall for visitors to have a look. Thank you to the volunteers who still made it to the club to assist our Captains in promoting sailing.

A new date has been established for Discover DINGHY Sailing, and this will be on the 10th November 2018, Saturday. Invitation and promotions has gone out for an 830am start. Organisation of this event will be sent out to volunteers early next week. If you are an active member of the dinghy section, please log into your team app and RSVP the event request so the Captains are able to allocate appropriate jobs to all.
Race #3 will go ahead but with a new start time of 11am. Please refer your Team App for details of the race. All support boats will be launched on Friday to allow the ramp to be clear for launching of Pacers and Oppies for Discover Sailing Program. Some assistance will be required on Friday as well.
We are hoping for healthy numbers to come through our gates, try out our dinghies and feast on our cakes! Those who have kindly offered to bake, Thank You! The more cakes the merrier!
