	Our Friends at Gt Yarmouth and Gorleston Sailing Club would like to invite the members of RBSC to a  numbers of events the week commencing  Monday26th May.

Event Details.

 

Monday 26th May – Bank holiday open Day. – Start time 10:30

Come with or without you boat, and experience the joys of clean wind and open spaces, GYGSC – members will be available to offer an introduction to the Sea sailing experience.

Sunday 15th June – Lowestoft passage Race. – Start time 10:30

The planned race is to Lowestoft and back depending on favourable conditions

Saturday 21st June Beach Regatta . – Start time 13:00 Briefing 12:00

Sunday 22nd June Beach Regatta  – Start Time 10:30

This is our main open event of the year with separate starts for the Phantom and allcomers fleets, there will be 3 back to back races each day.

Thursday 26th June – Thursday Evening Regatta – Start time 7pm

This is likely to be 2 races over a shorter inshore course than Sundays and with usually lighter evening winds a great opportunity to race on the sea. The evening sailing tends to attract more Single Handers especially Lasers than the larger weekend courses.

 

If guests would like to leave their boats on site for the Week this should not be a problem.

Directions to GYGSC can be found here http://www.gygsc.co.uk/ (Club, Location)

Day 2 R5 (13th), R6 3rd  –  Discarded 13th

 

Finished overall 7th out of 146 competitors,  Well Done Daniel.

 

He absolutely chuffed with his performance finishing at the top end of his squad of 25!!

 

Daniel is now doing a weeks squad camp at Plymouth until Friday and he won’t get back until late Sunday. Look out the weekend after, he will be full of it.

Think you are the expert (or know you are not!)

Like to get involved in the post race banter but would like to be sure of your facts 

Then this could be the course for you.

 RYA Race Rules Advisors Seminar at RBSC Sat 4th February 2012.

 Run by RYA trainor -Trevor Lewis

 No fee but you’ll need to bring lunch…..

 This is part of the RYA’s initiative to improve rules dispute procedures with out resorting to formal protests, sounds just like  what we do already but we do need a few people to be upto date with the rules!

 This is being run in conjuntion with our neighbours at Hickling and spaces are limited (more than enough for us) but must be booked before hand.

 Please catch me at the club or enquire on sailing@rbsc.org.uk if interested.

 Thanks

Ian
