Harbour Cruise 14th June
We are planning to host a cruise to explore our beautiful Harbour on Tuesday 14 June.
Scheduled around high tide to ensure easy access on and off the quay, this is an outing for those members who don't have a boat but would like to get on the water. Retired members and guests of members are all very welcome. Club and Flag Officer launches will be used.
If you are interested in taking part please contact RC Cruisers at RCCruisers@boshamsailingclub.com.
Youth Fund Boat Jumble
The BSC Youth Fund Boat Jumble last weekend was a great success raising a fantastic £3000 - this will now be available to support youngsters to achieve their sailing goals and enable some, who would otherwise not have the opportunity, to discover how exciting sailing can be.
Apart from the jumble sale, we were lucky enough to have a professional auctioneer who really ramped up the atmosphere of the event.
The trustees would like to thank all those who donated jumble, boats and other nautical items, the kind volunteers who worked tirelessly and all those who came.
If you know of a worthy young sailor, or group of potential sailors, who could benefit from a grant, please do get in touch with the trustees: Peter Lacey, Tim Reynolds or Nicky Chapple.
