Excerpt from the lead article:
The club “Learn to Sail” sessions have been a great success, with many youngsters enjoying their developing skills.
We enjoyed a visit from St.Peter’s Sea Scout unit on the 10th. They brought their fibre glass cutter with them, 4 children and adults joined us on the race course.
This ends the experience of sailing off Wainamu Bay until the winter series.
We can look forward to a change of venue at Lorenzen Bay, where the sailing will be a little different to the exposed beach we are used to launching from.
The day begins in a sheltered bay with variable winds until the boats reach the open part of the harbour. We intend to have picnics on beaches up the harbour as we explore new territory.
