TUESDAY EVENING TALK

A SAILING ADVENTURE IN THE GULFS OF PERSIA & OMAN - TUESDAY 14 APRIL

Just weeks before the political escalation in the region, club member Julian Berney took part in 33rd Dubai to Muscat Off Shore Race - 360 nautical miles navigating the, now infamous, Straits of Hormuz. Come and listen to his experiences of shifting winds and long night passages.      

Bar open from 18:30 in the Osea Room, with the talk starting at 19:30 on the Upper Deck. Non members welcome.

SAILING


Our members can race in our extensive race program, cruise on the Blackwater estuary and beyond, learn to sail on our training lake and gain RYA certification. 


From novices to experienced sailors, children & adults, dinghies, yachts, windsurfers and paddlers, all are welcome in our friendly family club. 


Our Cadet Section offers training, racing and social events for 8 to 18 year olds, culminating in an annual Cadet Week in the summer holidays. 


Every Friday morning, sailors of all levels sail together on the river or lake, lots of fun and friendship guaranteed, followed by tea and cake.
