Calling all dinghy sailors with an interest in Day Cruising!
AROUND HAYLING CRUISE Sunday 6th July
On Sunday 6th July, Tudor SC will undertake a highlight of the club’s sailing calendar – the circumnavigation of Hayling Island. In response to Phil Bryant’s plea and my wish to enjoy this excellent event yet again, I have volunteered to act as cruise ‘marshall’ on this occasion.
If you have made this trip before, then you don’t need any further explanation about the excellent sailing, camaraderie and general uplifting of spirits that this cruise can provide. If you have not – then there is really only one way to find out! And .. if you would like to take part but would rather not do so ‘single handed’ – please turn up anyway as we should have a number of two-handers in the fleet who can accommodate an extra crew!
(Thinking about it – this is a particularly good opportunity for the club’s many Wayfarer sailors to wash the dust off their boats. It would be rather good to show HISC that TSC has a strong Wayfarer section when we pull up in their back yard for lunch!) Please note that we will be accompanied by the club RIB – so any ‘luggage’, lunch boxes, barbecues etc. can be stowed aboard. (A sort of on-the-water sherpa service for TSC members.)
We are scheduled to be on the water at 10.00 following a briefing at 9.45.
