Thursday Washout... On Land Sailing Activites


Thursday's storms kept sailors on land, but the instructors worked hard to keep them busy with sailing related activities. The opti classes continued to work on tacking using their tillers and sitting in chairs. The beginner classes worked on their knots as they tied up Ali and Patrick to the chairs! They also played sailing jeopardy and outlined the parts of the boat. DJ had his class doing push-ups, sit-ups and running racing while rigging their 420's! It was very impressive.


The 420 Team took off to Chatham and had a great day learning team racing tactics from Charlie Enright. They were on and off the water due to the weather but they kept busy and learned a lot! Coach Mildred took lots of notes and will be working with the team to improve before regatta travel.

A reminder that the WDYC Invite is on Monday and there will be NO CLASSES! If you can volunteer for the day, please see me in the office.

Keep your fingers crossed for sun!!
