  Let’s see the end of the sailing season go off with a bang!!

  This year on 7^th October, we will be holding a double header Brass Monkey.  The intention is to get as many members to see the end of the 2017 season out by participating in the Brass Monkey.

  There will be a skippers briefing at 8:30am with a first start of 9:00 am for double handed boats.  If you are unable to use your lightning or fireball and would be prepared to offer it another sailor, please let us know.  Racing will be short courses and fast turnaround with the regatta finishing at 11:30 am.

  Ashore for a warm up, lunch and change of boat between 11:30 am and 12:15 pm

  Single handed regatta will run between 12:15 pm and 3:00 PM. If you have a laser and are unable to support the event, please let Laurie know if you would be prepared to lend it.

  Once the sailing is complete, we head back to the club for a traditional Thanks giving Turkey.  Please bring pot luck sides and desserts.
