Here is a message from the Colne Yacht Club sailing committee.
Sailing crew wanted.
We hear that there are a few skippers still looking for people to help them sail their boats, both for cruising and racing.
Regular or inexperienced crews are invited to try introductory sailing sessions which will be arranged by the CYC sailing committee who will try to allocate people to suitable skippers and boats for one session initially, taking account of their respective sailing experience.
The sailing committee’s objectives are to encourage more people to go sailing and get more boats on the water.
If you know anyone who may be interested please let us know. They do not need to be a member of the club to be a crew.
Crew and skippers, please contact Marilyn Hempstead on 01206 842149 or email
