DECEMBER NEWSLETTER
Hi Folks
Seasonal greetings to everyone. Hope you enjoyed the festivities. A few bits of information for you.
DAMAGE TO CRAFT
Due to high winds at the sailing club, a number of boats have been damaged - GP14's; RS200 and RS400 and there may be others. It might be an idea to check yours is OK if you are in any doubt. If you didn’t already do so please ensure that your boat is tied down securely and the mast is unstepped – it may still may be at risk.

REMOVAL OF CARAVANS
In the last newsletter, members were asked to remove their caravans from the field before 16th December. Unfortunately some members either do not know or have ignored this request. We risk losing this luxury if we abuse the rules so would those members who have not removed their caravans please do so IMMEDIATELY. We will be contacting those offenders directly also.
