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.
We have vacancies for most most weekends in July and we urgently need members to come forward to fill them. Please see the online duty list for details of the gaps and please contact our duty manager, Kevin Edwins, by email if you can help. Please read on for full details of the upcoming vacancies.
- Sunday July 1st: OOD, Race Officer, Safety Boat Captain, Boat Crew x 2 (High risk sailing will be cancelled)
- Saturday July 14th: Safety Boat Captain
- Sunday July 14th: Assistant Race Officer
- Saturday July 28th: Boat Driver, Boat Crew x 2
- Sunday July 29th: OOD, Assistant Race Officer, Safety boat Captain.
Why not name and shame the members who don’t turn up or refuse to do a duty?
Please add me for boat driver duty on 26/08/12 (as can not see my name on list)
