Covid 19 Update
We are delighted that sailing and outdoor activity will be one of the first activities, after education, to be released from lockdown. Subject to the government road map remaining unchanged we only have 24 more sleeps to go. The club reopening schedule will be coming soon. The sailing committee was all smiles last night finalising details for an exciting on water 2021 programme (keep fingers, toes and legs crossed).

Sail from Home
A big thank you and well done to the RYA for the Virtual Dinghy Show last weekend. We hope those who were able to attend enjoyed the very well organised virtual event. A bonus of the show going online this year is you can watch any of the talks you missed or want to see again on-demand here. Here are a couple of highlights to get you started.

The Model Yacht Association have a great YouTube channel with highlights of their racing and an introduction to the sport.

The club YouTube channel has some of our zoom evenings available to rewatch and highlights of the Datchet Flyer.
