Christmas and New Year Sailing

RBSC – NOTE FROM THE COMMODORE – WINTER SAILING

 

Those of us who enjoy the winter sailing have been having fun out on the water.. We have had   turn outs this year of over twenty boats and some good days with fresh winds blowing down the length of the broad.

 

This is just a reminder that the club continues to operate through the festive season. Next Sunday the 21st is for normal winter series racing.

 

The following Sunday the 28th December is a special one off morning, with a pursuit race starting at 10.45.  The race will last for 72 minutes for the slowest boat with the winner presented with the prestigious silver Bent Vase and prizes for the runners up.

Following the pursuit race we will run a short 30 minute race for the Watson Cup. This is for double handed boats which are to be sailed by the helm only – a bit of fun for the competitors and the spectators !  Angie will be coming to provide lunch and we hope to see many of you there– a bit of fresh air between Xmas and New year festivities !

 

On the 1st Jan we have,of course, the popular New Years Day Regatta so another good time for some fresh air – normal start times.

Don’t forget to invite your friends!
