Commodore's Weekend and Annual Prizegiving Saturday 7th/Sunday 8th June 2024
With only a few weeks to go until Commodores Weekend I felt it was time to let the members know exactly what to expect from the weekend.
Camping will be available on the field from the Friday night throughout the weekend, subject to weather.
Commodore's weekend kicks off at 10.30 on the Saturday with a briefing. As last year I have decided to run separate races for Juniors (under 18 on the day) and Seniors, I will also be running a novice race for those that don't feel competent enough to start with the more experienced sailors.
Racing programme is as follows:
Saturday:
10.30 Briefing for all competitors.
11.00 Senior Commodore's Cup Race 1
