Junior Fun Event on Sunday, August 30

Update from Steve Potter, Junior Fleet captain

We are planning on running some fun races for the juniors on the Sunday, August 30.

This is open to everyone at stage 2 and above and, of course, is weather dependent. It will be more fun-type racing rather than competitive round-the-cans stuff, so be prepared. Parents, as for normal racing, will need to stay to help launch and recover our little ones' boats. We will be using the windsurfing lawn and Birkett Field so as not to clash with the Island Race which is being held on the same day. There will also be some on-shore socially-distanced activities, complying with Covid-19 regulations.

We are going to need to some parental help with safety boats. Steve, Kathryn and our new assistant sailing manager Steve will be running the event so it should be a great day. Of course prizes are on offer! It will run from 10 am to 4pm. Please let me know if you are interested in taking part. Email uycjuniors@gmail.com
