Apologies for the delay but the summer Training programme can now be found on the website calender.

Most of you will be aware of the array of photo-voltaic solar panels which were installed on our roof about a month ago.  So far the performance has been very good.  Considering that the sun is just climbing back up to a decent angle, the panels have regularly produced 4.5kW and today, Fri 13th produced 16.7kWh of energy.  Since installation, the total energy produced has been 246kWh, which is worth £91. 

The calender has now been updated with the coming year's dates for cruisers.  

In addition to the usual racing calender we have cruising adventures for all abilities; Family Cruising, Wine Run, Coastal Hop and numerous sociable cruises to local ports. Please contact me if you are interested in participating or want more information, please do feel encouraged to get out there and make the most of it.  

I am also interested in introducing skippers to crew for cruising and racing, as we seem to have both at a loose end.  Please get in touch if you are crew or skippers looking for help getting out on the water.  

Not long now... Tink

The Cruiser section met on the 16th November to reconsider the options around lift in over the wall dates for Spring 2012.  The meeting was well attended, and after a period of discussion there was a vote held as to the preferred date.  The vote was in favour of 22nd March 2012.  The minutes of this meeting will be shared with the Commodore, the Cruiser section and the Dinghy Captain.

Well done to Ben Cornish and Alex Horlock on a great result at last week's Laser nationals.  Ben finished 12th overall and Alex 19th.  Discounting the non-British sailors (the Dutch took the first four places!)  that makes Ben 6th in UK and Alex 11th.
