September
Saturday 12th September – Bart’s Bash – Down river sail with day cruisers
On the Sunday 13 of September there will be another attempt of having the ‘away day’ when cruisers welcome dinghy sailors aboard their boats for a sail down to Cawsands where we anchor and if conditions allow, will raft up. There will be opportunities to swim and row ashore for ice creams. Some cruisers are attending a different club event so there will be limited spaces. If you fancy coming along, then it is first come first served. Please reply to this e-mail if you plan to attend. Forecast is currently for a warm day, light winds and a possible shower.
Sailors 10 and under must be accompanied by parent or guardian in the same boat. Unaccompanied under 18s must provide a completed consent form (see attached) and all participants must have completed medical and emergency contact forms.
The plan is to meet on the slip way at 0945 to meet the skippers and sort out boats and should be back at the slip by 1800.
You will need:
Appropriate clothing for the weather
Sunscreen/ sun hat
Picnic
Money to buy ice cream
Swimming stuff
Saturday & Sunday 12th to 13th September – Yealm Weekend Sail for Cruisers
This has always been a popular and enjoyable event, which I hope you’ll be able to join us on for yet another memorable adventure. All members are welcome!
We sail downriver on the morning tide of Saturday the 12th September, arriving at the upper pontoon on the River Yealm on Saturday afternoon. We return the following day, arriving back at Weir Quay in the late afternoon.
Tides: High at WQ 0735 and 1945 on the 12th; 0810 and 2019 on the 13th.
There is plenty of time for a relaxed departure time, with the Cruising Officer aiming to slip the mooring at WQ for 1000.
Please look for any updates on the club WhatsApp thread.
However, if you are not a WhatsApp user please email me at cruising@wqsc.org to register interest, stating name, boat name and length and your intended departure time.
Let’s see how many of us we can get along to this very sociable late season event.
We look forward to seeing you there!
