Catering Success

Congratulations to Caroline Ramsey and the House Committee for their hard work in ensuring that we have catering on an ongoing basis. After Kingsway Catering departed at very short notice, Caroline and her team have worked wonders to ensure that we remain well fed. Many thanks!

Windward Leeward Racing takes off !

Windward Leeward racing has been running for a mere 12 weeks, and has already attracted 38 different boats. At least one new member has joined as a result and we have high hopes of attracting more as word gets around. Round-the-cans racing remains unchanged, and there have been no problems thus far with running RTC and W/L races alongside each other.

W/L races are started on start number 7, going off 6 minutes after the Miracles

The course is marked on the committee boat and follows the format explained here in the OD instructions



1 Fireball
2 Flying Fifteen
3 Laser / RTC handicap
4 Solo
5 Miracle
6 Spare / recalled class 1
7 W/L

Race 3 will remain unchanged and will retain the successful format of a round the cans mass start.

Wednesday evening racing will also remain unchanged.

The races will be a minimum of 45 minutes for W/L.

Please come and support the new series, the more you race the better the racing will be.

 

The Sailing Committee strongly recommends that only quick release trapeze harnesses are worn when sailing at DWSC. Also that a suitable safety knife should be carried by all sailors when afloat.
