Events are open to Members children of all ages and their parents and carers whether or not they are budding or current sailors. Events are held at least once a month and parents and carers are encouraged to stay and join in the fun, it's a great way of meeting new friends, learning about cadet sailing opportunities and experiencing some very happy times.

Current suggestions include summer beach BBQs, picnic sails, sailing and racing workshops, on the water games and local cinema trips. We look forward to seeing you. If you would like to contact us please TUESDAY TALKS A wide-ranging programme of Tuesday Talks has been given during the winter months for several years and it is intended that this should happen again during the winter 2019/20. The topics are of general interest, are not confined to boating, are not technical and should appeal to all. It is hoped that members will continue to enjoy another interesting series of talks during the dark months at both the end of 2019 and the early part of The talks start at 2000hrs, the bar will be open on these evenings and a special supper menu will be available; guests are welcome so long as they are signed in. The dates of the talks for next winter are shown below; full details of the Talks will be published at a later date and will also appear in the Newsletter and on the notice board at least a week before hand. 2019:- 08 & 22 January, 05 &19 February, 05 &19 March. 15 & 29 October, 12 & 26 November, 03 December 2020:- 07 & 21 Jan, 04 & 18 Feb, 03 & 17 & 31 Mar LADIES THAT LAUNCH (LTL) The Ladies that Launch group encourages and supports women sailors of all abilities to spend as much time as we can out on the water improving our sailing, racing and boating skills. Our Ladies that Launch group s ethos is to support each other and ensure that everyone has opportunities to improve their skills. That might be through RYA accredited group and individual training delivered by our Chief Instructor or mentoring and practice sessions supported by club members. We enjoy the fun, friendships and camaraderie we forge as we hone our confidence and technical skills out on the water. Many good friendships have been formed on and off the water on the back of our Come Sail with Us events (listed in this Sailing Programme), BHYC training courses, workshops, social sailing and racing activities which take place throughout the year. We also enjoy a wide range of social activities, events and evenings, details of which can be found on our section in the Club newsletter or on our lively Facebook pages. If you are interested or would like to know more about joining us please contact Linda Briant or Polly Schafer and ltl@bhyc.org.uk for more details. SCOW OWNERS We want to encourage as many Scows on the water as possible in Scows don't have to race (although many find that gives a sense of purpose to the sail and makes it more fun), just get yourself out on the water and enjoy some sailing time with like-minded people. We have allocated a date for a sail

9 round to Priory Bay for a summer picnic, bring the family. This will hopefully take place in July. We try to have Scow social suppers from time to time. If you have any other social Scow ideas please do not hesitate to contact the Scow Captain Anne Barlow by sending an to sailing@bhyc.org.uk Anne would be happy to help you rig and tune your scow as well as answer any questions about the Scow class. SAILING COMMITTEE Our aim is to encourage safe and enjoyable sailing for all members, whether it is Club racing, cruising, training activities or sailing for pleasure on your own. Please do ask a member of the Sailing Committee or the Boatman should you require advice or assistance (contact details below) and remember we have boats you can hire and also have tuition for those who need guidance and further support. All sailors and helpers taking part in Club-organised activities should familiarise themselves with the BHYC Safety Policy, which is available in the Club foyer, the office, Jubilee Centre or on the website.

More information will follow throughout the season in the Club Newsletter. Please pick up a EWCC 2019 Programme at the bar for details of Regattas around the region when available in April. FORMAT OF RACING To reduce congestion in the harbour and to reduce the risk of collision, the majority of starts at summer weekends will be from a committee boat outside the harbour as identified below. There will still be starts from the Harbour Line for all races in the Icebreaker, Breakfast, and Evening series. Where two races are designated, the points from each race will contribute towards the series totals. Between Easter and June a number of Cadet Challenges will be organised in conjunction the racing. This is primarily for cadets and novices (although all welcome), at the discretion of the training programme leader on the day. There will be a number of short races from a committee boat, depending on the weather. The schedule of racing for the season is given in the sailing programme. Apart from the Icebreaker Series, which is for Scows and single handed Handicap boats only, and other special races as indicated in the racing instructions, dinghies will race in separate groups depending on numbers (additional class racing may be introduced should any particular class generate an average of 5 entry per race in the preceding series) with 5 min between starts. The start time and starting line, Home (H) or Committee Boat (CB), shown in the programme is for the first race. For the committee boat starts please allow enough time to sail out of the harbour and get to the committee boat. SAILING SUPPORT CREWS "DUTYMAN" All competitors are encouraged to sign on to "Dutyman", on the website.
