A further opportunity to get out on the water and get some practice in after Bristol Corinthian the previous weekend.

Start time advertised as 10:30 am, that's the rigged and ready to sail start time, the kettle will be on by 9:30. Unlikely that we will have any catering on site that day so bring your own butties.

Reminder about coaching at Spinnaker.

Please reply if you are coming so that we can gauge numbers

Can't guarantee sunny skies, but it should be getting warmer by then. We are sheltered so we will be sailing whatever the weather (not that that prevented BOTH our boats being blown over in the recent gales!  :-/  ).

Latest Inshore Forecast outlook to Sat 0600 says SW 3-4 increasing 5-6 so we should get something like 3-4 - good chance to practice boat handling in a bit of breeze

 Can't promise sun all day but weather forecast is unsettled with clear or sunny spells and showers on each day, (Sat & Sun) some heavy with a risk of hail and thunder. Says it will be chilly but we shouldn't get any blizzards this weekend!

If you're coming, let me know, I might have to organise some rescue boats  !

Thanks to Phil for an excellent days coaching. we had a really good session
Thanks also to Spinnaker for hosting the training, great day.


Phil's forecast was spot on, so it was quite lively at times.

Where was everyone else? We were the only visitors!
Ah well, our tacking is better. I think our Gybes are less sketchy (not so sure Chris agrees) (water wasn't too cold) (well you do have to test it, don't you?!)
