Budworth Sailing Club

SPLASH!!!

We’re going sailing sailing with our Dad
We don’t feel at all sad
Get in the car and fetch the boat
And don’t forget to bring your coat!

We go…
Wave splash
Boom crash
Fall in
Big din
HELP ME!
Deep sea
Fun swim
Climb in

Out in the ocean havin’ a sail

Wind picks up ad we go flying!
O.K maybe were lying
Right.Lets get going
Now the waters really flowing

We have…
Wet hair
Don’t care
Soaked socks
Sailing “rocks”
Good mood
Grab food

Out in the ocean havin’ a sail

Why not come down and have a look today!

Budworth is a friendly club, and we would be pleased to see you if you are interested in racing, whether you are already a sailor or looking to start. We have vibrant youth and adult sailing programmes, so come and have a chat!

There will be boats from all our racing fleets on display (Fireballs, Fireflys, GP 14, Laser, Mirror, RS200, Snipe, Topper) and the probably the chance to have a sail. Many of our committee will be in attendance.

A hull & sail measuring course for GP14 Dinghies is being proposed by the GP14 Association to be held on Saturday 3^rd May in Eccles, Manchester.

The Association needs to get approx 6~8 people together to make it worthwhile, and the invitation is being made to all regional GP14 fleets.

If you would like to become a registered measurer for GP14s and would like to attend, please let me know ASAP (email - by 31^st March latest please!

On the 23rd April I have arranged a Racing Rules refresher evening down at the Club. The evening will start at 19:30 and will be a reminder of the current rules and interpretations. It will also cover the new concepts of arbitration which might negate the need for formal protest meetings. Plus, we’ll see who actually knows how far two boats lengths is ! See you on the 23rd
