Despite a weekend of wild forecasts and some decent breeze the ‘intro to keelers’ group enjoyed everything from fri eve to watching the race start before learning man over boards with a 100% success rate, which was nice !!!

 

So on wards and upwards

Start Keeler Sailing  Aug 1& 2

Heaps of manoeuvres, upwind down wind and back again as well as an understanding of all related areas.  Great if you havnt driven a yacht yourself that much.

 

Skills builder Aug 7,8 &9

Develop both cruising and race skills, come and try the things youve always wanted to.

Fri 7th – intro to navigation and a meal at the club

Sat 8th – level 2 cruising crew so practicing basic nav, coming alongside pontoons, anchoring etc, spinnakers?

Sat night on board, anchored and enjoying and learning about life on board, spaces limited.

Sun 9th – intro to racing.  Starts, practice tacks and gypes, then doing the race to put it all into practice.

 

All courses $255 club members

We are running these courses to attract more members to the club, the idea is that they will get hooked and carry on racing keelers, maybe change into small boats or go buy their own...  so please pass on friends who have shown an interest in the past, $285 non members.

 

Drop me a line anytime for more info

Youth Sailing Fun Day

Towsrds the end of Term4's youth learn to sail we like to do a big sail around the harbour involving as many club sailors as we can. There is nothing quite like hearing how good sailing is from so many others. Not to mention getting out on the water with them for a good charge around.
Thnaks to all for a great day, roll on next saturday :)
