Slipway Progress
The contractor managed to get the first two pours of concrete done as planned last week but unfortunately due to the closure of the concrete supplier the planned third pour did not take place to the area where you will see the reinforcement in place. The contractor worked right up until Saturday 28th March but it looks as though works will now be suspended for the foreseeable future.
You will note temporary rock placement and lot of rock sitting on original slip for storage reduces full width of slip in certain photographs!

COVID-19
The Club and its grounds remain closed and while we are missing our sailing and our socialising the most important thing for now is the health and wellbeing of our members and staff.
We all need to do our best to stop the spread of Coronavirus and the best way to do this is to STAY AT HOME

- if you go out, stay 2 metres (6ft) away from other people at all times;
- stop all unnecessary travel;
- do not meet with friends and family – keep in touch using remote technology such as phone, internet, and social media;
