*Sundays on the water: Races have been scheduled but are subject to change. Keep an eye on the BRSC Sailing WhatsApp group. Races will start at 11.00 a.m. and be back-to-back. Meaning that after the final boat crosses the line in the first race, the race office will sound a warning horn indicating that the 5-minute start sequence for the second race will begin a minute later. For those wanting to free sail, kayak, or paddleboard, the safety boat will be on the water.
*Saturdays on the water: The social sessions are included in the calendar to encourage recreational sailing, windsurfing, paddleboarding. kayaking. These sessions will happen depending on wind strength and sea state on the day. If club owned boats are used, then there must be a safety boat in attendance. There must be at least one safety boat crew member qualified to PB2 level.
*Wednesday Itch: It would be good to keep the Itch going for those who’d like to sail midweek. Same rules apply.
*Please note: ALL sessions are subject to change and are dependent on the weather, sea state and help available.
