Announcements ...

 

Please make sure you keep Sunday 24th May free for the PBSC AGM. The AGM will be held at RPAYC and will incorporate a bit of fun on the Wave fleet as well as a BBQ. Further details to follow....

 

Please also note that due to the time put in by members for the Youth Regatta in January, as well as the various away regattas over the season, it has been decided that the club's annual Bullets Regatta (previously scheduled for the Easter weekend) will not be held this year. The Bullets Regatta will be reinstated to the calendar for the 09/10 season.

Code of Conduct


The committee has formulated a 'Code of Conduct' relating to Club Racing. This is to help us promote the fun, friendly family atmosphere of the club as well as encourage Youth participation and promote fairness and sportsmanship in our on water activities. Issues which may arise on the water will be settled after racing by the committee.

 

Another new initiative will be Rules sessions to help educate all sailors in the knowledge and observance of the rules which will improve the sailing and enjoyment for us all.
