Work-on-your-boat Day last weekend
Chris Tattersall
The break between our consecutive sailing seasons is perfect for preparing boats and getting fitter. The length of the break varies: In one cold country it is half a year. In Australia at DBSC its one week !
Our club ran a boat maintenance day for the second time, as there was no racing planned on Sunday. More than 10 sailors of all ages came to fix the consequences of past accidents in a relaxed atmosphere of comradeship. Thanks also to Paige for joining with the Reach Youth squad, and Daryl for his bottomless stash of stories and everyone else who came and got involved. It was a nice surprise to see Life Member and former commodore Jonatan Stone, who dropped by the club for a chat.
The workshop has now been restocked with gelcoat, sand papers and everything you need for boat repair.
