Happy New Year

Hope you all had a great Christmas and New Year. Now that we are all back in the swing of things we are looking forward to another great year of sailing. The 2015 Race programme will be available very soon along with race/galley and bar duties.

Bosun's Maintenance 17/01/15

Our new Bosun has been recruiting a maintenance crew to come along and help sand down both Edna May and Sea Fox. So far 5 HSC members have volunteered to help out.If anyone else is interested in joining the crew please sign up via the following link:https://sites.google.com/a/highcliffesailing.co.uk/bosun/

Start Time = 10am
Lunch = bacon sandwiches
End Time = Dark
Bring suitable warm and waterproof clothing you dont mind getting dirty.
For those of you with soft hands I recommend bringing some gloves as sand paper can be a bit rough on soft skin!

Icicle Series 25/01/2015

This popular open series continues on Sunday 25th, starting at 11.00 am. Non members are welcome to join the race with a token fee of £1.00 per boat.
If you aren't a winter sailor, it's worth coming down to watch, the race is run from the clubhouse and 20+ boats in the harbour is quite a sight, plus you can warm up afterwards in the Bar.

Ladies That Launch 2015

So Christmas is over, we're all probably wishing we hadn't drank so much at New Year and everyone is now wondering which New Years resolution will be the one to stick at. Well here's the answer - Ladies That Launch will be back in 2015 and hopefully even better than last year.
To kick of the season we are planning to have a get together on Wednesday 11th February at 8pm down at the club - and yes the bar will be open for those recovering from "Dry January".
The first 6 dates for your diary are as follows:15th May; 29th May; 12th June; 26th June;10th July;7th August.
There will be some other race dates and we have the potential of a challenge race against the ladies at Christchurch Sailing Club - more details later!!
