2026 Open Day
Our annual Open Day is on Monday 4th March. Throughout the day we will be opening our club to members of the public so they can come along, see what we offer, try out dinghy sailing and kayaking, and find out how they can get involved! Please spread the word amongst your friends and family, and invite them along.
Find out more about the day here!
Race Duties
We rely on volunteers supporting our club racing, and have a few vacant slots in April, so if you haven't volunteered yet please do so soon! Remember there is a staff member on hand for every club racing day to provide advice and support to our volunteer team so please ask them for help if you're not sure on the day! We will shortly begin allocating duties if we do not get sufficient volunteers.
In particular we are urgently looking for help on Sunday 19th April.
Washdown Station
Our new washdown station has been well and truly tested this week with several members taking advantage of it to wash down their boats, and our instructor team have been testing out the electric paddleboard pump!
Instructions on how to use this facility are now inside the cabinet, so please do use this great resource. To help protect our environment please remember the Check, Clean, Dry Guidance for when taking equipment away from Spinnaker Sailing Club.
Rock Up And Race
We are vey excited to be part of an RYA pilot project this year called "Rock Up and Race"! This is all about fun, friendly, easily accessible dinghy racing. These sessions run on a 2-week cycle. In week 1 they are on a Wednesday afternoon between 3pm and 5pm, whilst in week 2 they run on a Friday evening after work, alongside late night hire! This week our session is on Wednesday!
Book on for tomorrow's session here!
How to Stay In Touch
Don't forget a really good way to stay in touch with other members is our Whatsapp Community, there are different groups within the community for each of our main classes, as well as the SYT Parents Group and a Kayaking/Paddleboarding Group.
