Sailing Section Duties July 2012 – Action Required!

We have to report that due to the lack of a safety boat crew, recreational sailing had to be cancelled on Saturday 30th June leading to sailors taking to the water without cover. This is a very disappointing situation and reflects a growing concern with duty cover over the coming weeks.

We know from our records that there are a large number of members who have not committed to a duty this year and with many gaps in the coming weeks there is a real risk of activities being cancelled or severely limited.
