Winter Talks 2024
We have a number of evening events planned whilst the nights are still fairly long:
Friday 1 March – Anna Gebruk (Tyche) will be talking about Walruses in Spitzbergen
Friday 29 March – Paul Taylor (Hirta) and David Cox (Moonshine) on sailing from Puerto Rico to Scotland
All talks will be at Trinity Bowling Club. Doors open at 7 for 7:30 start.
Upcoming Event – Jan 13th
We will start the New Year with a workshop to discuss the forthcoming sailing season and also to discuss harbour issues including the impact of Storm Babet and the 2024 lift-in (including lessons learned from lifting boats out with masts up).
This will be on Saturday 13th January in the Bell Block. The programme will be:
1130 Introduction and discussion of sailing programme – briefing by Sailing Secretary
1200 Impact of Storm Babet and improving resilience – briefing by harbour team
1245 Lift in and lessons learned – briefing by harbour team
1300 onwards – harbour work party and yard cleanup
Please come along and join in – a lot of work goes into both the sailing programme and the harbour activities and we should recognise the efforts that are made on our behalf.
