NATIONALS


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Don't know if folk have seen this but they are looking for folk to volunteer for roles at the Nationals - As with all these events they do not run withough parent support.? Most roles are still available and there are jobs on and off the water for as little or as much as you want - The on water roles are a great opportunity to see the action up close so book now while you have a choice

I¡¯m wanting to put up the info on the 2019/20 Northern Series at the transition weekend next weekend.? There's a few of us at ELYC this weekend so if you're there we can all have a chat. If you're not there then any thoughts? welcome.

I¡¯ve spoken to the two boats at Derwent and they reckon they¡¯re not ready for a travellers there at end of August.? Once they¡¯re up and running they¡¯ll let us know and hopefully join in with training etc.? We¡¯d spoken about Venachar as other option.? There¡¯s a junior series there.? Do we want to tag onto that, same weekend. 25/26th August.

It¡¯s good PR for the class but there¡¯s a few problems.? We¡¯d need another course etc at Venachar, they¡¯re getting 40 junior boats at Largs which I reckon needs 6 ribs plus com boat.? I¡¯m not convinced they¡¯d easily source the extra ribs to run a Bravo course.? It¡¯s also very early in calendar for any new sailors.? There is a big Martin Boatman bash at South Shields that weekend as well which folk could go to?

I¡¯d therefore suggest we make East Lothian in June 2020 the replacement to Derwent.? I know when I suggested ELYC back last autumn you all shot me down, but the reality is that all of our kids are now capable of sailing there and we¡¯ve got at least 4 boats going this weekend.? Think we¡¯re all also going to Largo Bay as well!!? Both conditions permitting I agree.

We¡¯d then use the August and early September weekends for doing transition training, or as class all go to RYTC windward/leeward, Tummel or Lomond etc.?

Any new 2019 boats would then get a full series in kicking off with zones at DBSC 21/22nd September.

Worlds and nationals in 2020 are back to back in Weymouth Bay and so anyone going to them? is going to want as much sea experience as possible in lead up.? So ELYC would be ideal.

Any thoughts??

Yorkshire Dales should be on the weekend indicated but the 29er class have managed to organise open and class training that weekend so we need to resolve that one.? They had it down as the previous weekend.? Aghh
