It's looking quite fresh this weekend and so Gillies is asking if any parents are willing to potentially crew in ribs if required depending on conditions and the club.? Don't need PB2. Waterproofs or wetsuit would be good though.

If you can ping back a quick reply just so he knows who to ask tomorrow if he needs folk.?

Hi all.??

Andreas is at ELYC on Saturday from about 10am on Saturday and he's doing his normal delicious food. Highly recommended!? Cheaper than the lobster shack as well.?

Sunday we're on our own food wise.? Not sure if any access to kitchen facilities. I don't think there will be.

Saturday night for anyone in town plan is to go out for a curry. It's Ben's 18th and my 21st.?

Fergus Munro would be up for crewing at Cumbrae for? the experience. He has crewed on various boats and is moving to the 29ers from toppers this summer. He has already been out with Suzie. I'm sure Bear would vouch for him!!

He might be up for that. Maybe they could all mix and match ?.?

Why don’t they do it together and take turns in helming and crewing. They can probably learn a lot from trying the other position.

Just a reminder you need to sign up by Sunday night for the North Berwick academy on the 7/8th March.? Rumour has it that Ben is 18 that weekend so he's buying everyone beers in the Auld Hoose.??

Summer pre nationals camp 10-13th July at Cumbrae as well.

?Hi Bear.?

Like Team Cat/Evie, team Orri/Stuart are Di course this weekend , then Academy, then invitational, not sure between then and March Academy. And as on this occasion school must get in the way of a child’s education, no youths.?

Cheers Andy

We’re doing the academies and the IT but with the girls doing their instructors too I don’t think we’ll make many more events, certainly any further south before exams are done end of May…but it looks like a summer of sailing!

We won't be coming along to Tay this weekend.? Our boys will be doing the Largs academy and HSC IT which is probably enough given all the schoolwork/coursework that is piling up and they need to get some serious studying done.? Not sure we'll be doing the ELYC academy, it's not exactly the most convenient of locations for any of the current 29er sailors. We'll make a decision nearer the time.? Definitely wont be doing Weymouth GP.

We're signed up for the Youths (w/c 4th April), seems to be only Alastair&Sam, Elodie&Ewan and Ben&Maxi who are on the list and took advantage of the cheaper entry - Does this mean there won't be any other Scottish boats?

Just a quick round up of potential sailing dates at the Tay for anyone that wants to join in.? I know a few clubs are pretty closed down just now so it's gives options for both extra winter training and a chance for newbies to give it a go as well. Will do emails for each individual weekend closer to the time but if the racers can pencil in 14/15th March just now that would be great - but it's just at discussion stage!!

?

I'm hoping that I'll finally get Foster's boat insured and down at Tay very shortly for folk to try out 29ering in.? We've quite a few sailors keen to try it out but I reckon for next couple of months they'd need an experienced?sailor with them because of the cold. So if any of regular's normal helm or crew can't make dates but they can come along and take out sailors for taster sessions let me know.? Suzie can do some but suspect she'll be keen to windsurf some of those weekends instead.

?

One transition boat just purchased?and a few more definite possibilities?in pipeline so we'll organise some transition?training weekends to get folk started over the spring and summer.??

?

1/2nd Feb.??

Tides good, LW around midday, although it's neaps I'd still reckon a late morning launch, always good news for a teenager!? Colin's taking the rib out, he can do either or both days but think he is going to take a look at the forecast on Thursday and make a plan.??

?

15/16th and 22/23rd?

Academy at Largs and IT at HSC

?

22/23rd Feb.

Aiming to both days at the Tay with normal pairs, some toppers might be free that weekend so if spare helms/crews would aim to get them out with any new folk.? Oppy academy.

?

29th Feb/1st March.

Tides good? both days.? Alex is away so Suzie could take folk out but it's a topper academy weekend.??

?

7/8th March?

Academy ELYC

?

14/15th March?

Discussing doing a sprint series at Tay, either one day or two?? 8-10 minute races, as many as we can get in with lunch break. 6-8 races per session.? Windward/leeward straight off beach so good spectator sport!!!? Thinking of setting myself up with bookies blackboard.? Good kick start to the season and should be fast and furious. TBC, it will be a DIY event.

?

21/22nd March

Can do both days at Tay, Suzie free so can take out newcomers.?

.??

28/29th?

GP at WPNSA.? Tides good at Tay both days, Suzie can take out newcomers.? Topper academy.

?

Also Tummel Week 26-31st July this year, make sure the date is in your diary.? Same format as last year.? ??

?

Cheers

RYAS are going to be running a residential 29er summer camp at Cumbrae from 10-13th July. It's aimed at boats that are heading to the nationals and/or worlds in Weymouth this summer.? ?Friday morning to Monday afternoon?format with?Gillies coaching.? Think they'd better get their fitness up before they go!!? The four day format is pretty intense but it should pay dividends?come the nationals.?

Fiona?will email out details confirming it all in the next week or so. It replaces the usual? couple of days prior to the nationals at Weymouth, we all reckoned this was much more productive.??

?Just wanted to see if there was going to be enough interest before sorting any arrangements with club.? Can anyone that reckons they'd be up for it please reply.? Or if defo not interested or able to make it that would be handy to know as well.? It would be a DIY event so parents manning rib etc.

Plan would be roughly 2 hour+ sessions before and after lunch break, 10 minute target time for races so 6-8 races per session - weather permitting.? ? Windward/leeward just off beach so great spectating.? Someone can run a bookie's blackboard. Sprints work pretty well for any newbies as well, there's a fresh start every 15 minutes so you don't get too far behind.

Can make a one or two day event.? Or self training one day/racing the other?? ?Could potentially decide based on weather forecast on the Thursday night? If it goes according to plan we'd get at least 12 races in a day.? So 24 over two days.? Is that too many, it depends heavily on weather playing ball though. It's good starting practice, mark rounding, decision making etc and should be fast and furious, the beach could well be one of the boundary lines.??

Colin and Danny did a RS200 sprints last autumn with an 8 minute target time and said it was great, lots of place swapping within the 8 minutes, I suspect the 29ers might need an extra couple of minutes?

Anyway any interest or thoughts?
