Bar Prices

Having completed a comprehensive review of the costs of all items within the club bar, I am in the unfortunate position where I have no choice but to increase the price of some items.

Due to increases in the cost price of many items we stock since the last price rise back in 2011 we are in the position now where we are currently selling some items below cost price – clearly an unsustainable position. In order to minimize the extent of the price increases I have negotiated better discounts with the brewery for some lines and have substituted others with alternative products.

The new pricing will be introduced this weekend and price lists will be displayed around the bar. I believe that the new prices are still very competitive and hope that you continue to support the club bar – the more we sell, the better pricing we can achieve!

Saturday 25th July – cancellation of Out of Harbour Race and Forts and Fairways I

Both our Out of Harbour Race and Forts and Fairways I on 25th July are cancelled because of the restrictions placed on their respective sailing areas by the Portsmouth America’s Cup race taking place on the same day.

Hoist

Please be informed that the Hoist is now out of commission and has been split from the Tractor for maintenance. The estimate for the works will be 4-6 weeks but already we have found extra tasks so this will be revised once we know more.

Club Road Trailer

The club road trailer is currently out of action due to a failed/split hub. We will purchase a new piece and fit when available. Will inform via Tidal Diamond once it is available again.
