Twilight Sailing Fun
Last Friday night saw around 16 boats, 21 people, on the water We had 8 Opti's on the water and they were out to challenge the fleet. The age range of Opti sailors was 8 to 40. The youngest and newest sailor on the night, Eddy Douglas, beat everyone to the finish line. He probably had a weight advantage.
We have just completed a week of Tackers Courses and Sailing School course. All went extremely well and the weather was just about perfect all week. Our thanks must go to Instructors James Fleming, Gabrielle Simcox and Colin Franke. They were ably assisted by Will Palmer, Rebekka Simcox and Asha Douglas.
