The Royal Lymington Yacht Club is keen to promote even greater participation in yacht racing for more local boats and crew.
As such the Club is holding a 'Crew Match' open morning in the Bath Road clubhouse on Saturday 14th April at 1030 for those who would like to race their keelboats but need crew or those who would like to crew in a race but don't have a boat.
Richard Truscott, UNITY said: "We hope this will appeal to anyone who wants to get involved with cruiser racing but needs a way in. The focus is on the Club's highly popular Thursday evening racing where many boats and crew of mixed competitiveness, ability, age and experience compete in various classes off the Lymington River entrance throughout the spring and summer. However, there's lots of weekend sailing and other race events to compete in as well. The competition on the water is always taken seriously but the camaraderie back in the clubhouse afterwards is equally important!"
Anyone who's interested should just drop in to the clubhouse in the morning of 14th April for a coffee and a chat with the skippers and potential crew. You don't have to book or be a Club member to join in.
