Clothing; Please bring suitable warm clothing including waterproofs, hat, gloves and sailing shoes/boots (all may get wet, feet will definitely get wet getting the boats out!), all appropriate for the time of year plus change of clothing and towel. We should finish by 5:30pm.
Lifejackets The Club is able to provide buoyancy aids. If you would like to wear your own lifejacket, please ensure that it’s serviceability is in date in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Refreshments; Please bring your own lunch refreshments. We can use the coffee area one at a time to make drinks whilst ashore, a flask maybe useful.
Weather and tides As the tides are early in the day, we will be leaving the boats in the Marina overnight, therefore we will probably need to travel to the Marina On Sunday morning and we can organise that Saturday, or arrange car park passes for the Marina.
Please bring a passport sized photo which will be needed for your certificate as is your address and dob. This is needed for the certificate.
