Sailing Committee The sailing committee is responsible for the racing and cruising programme, duty rota, open meetings, sending out duty reminders and generally ensuring everyone has a good time sailing. We are always on the lookout for offers of help, so please do speak up if you can help in anyway. We meet around once a quarter and between times much of the sailing committee's business is progressed informally at the club and by e-mail. We aim to have Fleet Captains from each of the "recommended classes", plus a representative of the Handicap and Laser Fleets. Anyone can join in and help, the only requirements are to have an enthusiasm for sailing or windsurfing and a willingness to put something back into the sport.
