Bar Access
Further to Mark Swallow’s announcement last week that the combination to the bar key safe will change this Saturday (17th March). I will be sending the new codes to members with upcoming bar duties later this week and those who volunteer for duties over the coming year.
If you require access to the bar and do not have an upcoming bar duty please contact me for codes and the latest training requirements.

Sailing Secretary away
Please note that from the end of this week, Will is away, taking part in Leg 6 of the Clipper Round the World race, sailing across the Pacific from Qingdao, China, to Seattle. During this time the Sailing Secretary email box will not be monitored. The Sailing Committee will be running as normal under the guidance of Richard Barnes and Pete Codd. Will returns at the end of April.
If you would like to follow his progress across the Pacific, you can track all 11 yachts at https://www.clipperroundtheworld.com/race/standings. Will is racing on Visit Seattle.

Bar Refresher Training
As you may have noticed we have made a number of changes to the bar dispense systems recently. If you have volunteered for duties this year you will be receiving the latest revision of the bar instructions by email and there is a printed copy in the red folder in the bar.
If you would like hands-on training, please contact me to arrange a time. Alternatively, I will be at the club over the Cruiser launch weekend and can go through all then.
As a reminder, please also ensure that there is a signed declaration for you in the indexed section of the blue Member’s folder on your next duty. Blank declaration forms are in the back of the red Bar Instructions folder if needed.

Get into Print!
Getting ready for another sailing season? Why not put pen to paper – or fingers to keyboard – and write a contribution for the next issue of Ebb & Flow. Didn’t you make a new year’s resolution to write for the magazine? Let’s hear what you were doing out on the water in 2017. There must be some sailing stories out there that deserve a wider audience so please get in touch – anything sailing (or vaguely) sailing-related is welcome. Cadets and new members are encouraged to contribute as well as those who have been “floating around” for longer.
Please send your contributions to the email below.
