Kirk Marcolina

We will be running the Brett Beyer Saturday Program (BBSP) again this season.  The first program will run for 7 weeks as follows: 22 Sep, 6 Oct, 3 Nov, 10 Nov, 1 Dec, 8 Dec, 15 Dec.*  (A separate Brett Beyer Twilight Program will also be offered – details to come later).As with the last BBSP, there will be two categories:  B = $315, A = $630 (plus merchant fees).*  Everyone is invited to join the post-race briefing on the deck.

“B” participants receive (a) a video of the start with voice-over commentary, (b) a video of the “real time” GPS tracks of the fleet, (c) a leg by leg analysis of the performance of the fleet including individual speed and angle statistics vs the fleet, (d) access to Brett for comments and questions on water when not racing, (e) participation in the communal post-race debrief at the clubhouse after racing.*

“A” participants receive all the above plus (f) an individual report on their performance, referencing tactical and/or technical considerations and (g) the opportunity to email Brett with follow up questions.*

Please email coaching@dbsc.com.au to express your interest in this seasons’ BBSP, and indicate your name, rig type and A/B category preference.  A link for payments will be distributed in due course. 

*Terms: The program is conducted by Brett Beyer Sailing and all contractual arrangements are between the participant and Brett Beyer Sailing. Double Bay Sailing Club disclaims all liability, including liability for negligence. The program will run for 7 weeks as stated, except as notified.  Brett Beyer Sailing reserves the right to skip particular weeks at its discretion for reasons that may include, without limitation, conflicting coaching responsibilities, competition events, holiday periods and weather. If a week is skipped at the option of Brett Beyer Sailing, the program will be extended to ensure participants receive a 7-week program or applicable monies will be refunded. If a participant is unable to attend a particular week when the program is conducted, the participant forfeits that week's entitlement and Brett Beyer Sailing does not have to make good. Any sample reports are indicative only and Brett Beyer Sailing does not warrant the form or content and accepts no liability if the form or content differs. Brett Beyer Sailing will record real-time technical observations on various eligible participants using a dictaphone or other means. However, due to the number of eligible participants, and the practicalities involved with monitoring all participants, Brett Beyer Sailing may not provide individual on-water or written technical comments for each eligible participant each week or at all. Brett Beyer Sailing accepts no responsibility for failure of electronic equipment including a failure to record GPS information, and the resulting inability to provide the advertised content including content that is similar to that shown in any sample or prior reports.
