This seasons sailing documents are now available. And if you have paid your members you need to fill out the LWYC entry Form and fill out a Cat 7 or OTB Safety Declaration. These forms can be found on the website under Sailing – Season document

But if you are interested or just intrigued to know more about sailing, Sailability or Duty please get in contact now, before the season begins.  Send us an email

But, you wonder, what is involved with Duty?  There’s two positions on the day:

First: being on land, watching and monitoring the on-water antics and talking on the radio.

Then second positions on the water commencing with launching, retrieving and driving the safety boat, setting courses, setting and retrieving buoys, starting races (time keeping, flags up and down and horn blowing), monitoring the boats, sometimes effecting rescues and finalising the race results.

Of course in all those activities is chewing a lot of fat – tactics, mistakes, admiration and disagreement – all in fun.  And many of our members are rev-heads – so it’s not all sails!

So get in touch now and see what part of club life and sailing with which you’d like to be involved.
