We now have 2 Oppies and 2 Rs Fevas at the club. We would like to encourage their use by cadets and their competent parents. The club boats are to be used during regular Saturday morning cadets - all yopu need to do is ask the duty officer, Sue Nelson or Lorraine Bugden. Any cadets wishing to train up to be able to use them should notify us, so that we can arrange for someone to help you with this.
Weshould very much like the boats to be used at other club times nd would love to see them racing. It is hoped hat parents might introduce cadets to acing in the Fevas by crewing with their children or competent cadets crewing with younger cadets. If you don't want to commit to racing every week then we could arrange a team of crews whose results would be amalgamte at the end of the series.
With up to 3 saisl it would be an exiting way of start to race. We have enough Fevas in the club for a small fleet, so our aim is to get as many out together beause fleet is the best way to refine your sailing skills.
