10 - 11 April Training at Stewartby
The training at Stewartby is set to kick off at 10am on Saturday so your boat needs to be together with the sails ready to hoist by 10am. The Club will be open from 8.30am which should give you a chance to put your boat together.
Mark Norman has kindly agreed to be the local coordinator. Please pay Mark the balance of your tuition fee.
The program runs with on and off water activity.
Off the water:- a series of session briefings, dry-land exercises / demonstrations and debriefs.
On the water:- a series of exercises building towards a race program, on water video work and tuning.
End of day session on Saturday could be a boat maintenance workshop, covering rudder servicing, standing and running rigging inspection, gelcoat work, part replacement and boat care etc
For accommodation for the travelers you can camp (or sleep in your car at the Club) or book into a local B&B. there is a list of these below. Meals/ refreshments will be available at the club both days. The course will run until about 6pm on Saturday and Saturday evening is free. For Saturday evening meal I suggest that the travelers get a pub meal somewhere nearby. The locals can advise you when you are there.
On Sunday the course will end a little earlier to facilitate travel home.
If you want to bring your boat up Friday night the club can be opened by special request but please call Mark to organize this on 07867 506685
