New Captain Yachts 2018
Published 10:00 on 9 May 2018
Hi Everyone
I've taken over as Captain Yachts this year. My aim for the next three years is to:
- Make yachting as easy and enjoyable as possible for all
- Introduce more dinghy sailors and social members to yacht racing
- Entice more boats onto the water and boost racing on Wednesday nights
- Help sociable sailors to communicate and cruise in company
PURSUIT RACES AND OTHER FORMATS
I'd like to investigate the possibility of doing the occasional pursuit race. This should make things more appealing to novice and non-707 racers. Also up for consideration: different helm nights. I.e. Ladies, Ex-commodores (not the band), dinghy instructors or any other inventive ideas. Please email me with your thoughts: ku.oc.csrevirdrofleh@sthcay
