Highlights 📌

RIB Trailer
We're looking for someone with storage to spare that can hold onto our RIB trailers.

The two trailers are 6m by 5m. We only need to access them about twice a year and we will coordinate ahead of time.

The club's RIBs live on float bricks making the trailers redundant except when other clubs borrow them we use the trailers for transport.

Squadron Sunday is back this Sunday, 26 June at 1000 hrs.

With its rich culture, calm weather and beautiful landscapes, the Mediterranean is ideal for sailing holidays or sea changes.

In this talk, Club Member Phil Brierley will cover the practicalities of Med sailing. He will encourage us to take a novel holiday or even inspire a decision to change life’s direction.
