I know you’re right Rupert, where we are is where we are. Ten years working through the committee, flag officer & commodore has left me a little jaded. I’m in no rush to get back and when I do an hour losing myself in Contender playtime will do just fine, unless of course my wife fancies some single wire three sail action.

Don't think sailings got a problem with insurance claims. Enjoy your sailing.

Have you ever considered that the more you chase risk the more liable you become in the event of an accident. That is to say the more services and you provide to reduce risk the more liable you may become should those services younorovide have a momentary blip in quality. |

Sail to socialise or Socialise to sail?
I suspect most club members fall into the first group much like blokes who follow football because it gives them a reason to come together and a safe subject to chat about. Ah well, might give it a go tomorrow anyway. |

"Ten years of working through the committee....has left me a little jaded"
This pause in club activities has left me evaluating my involvement in club activities. I'd like to cut back a fair bit as I realise how much time the club has been taking and how many other things have been put off or neglected. I'm thinking of issuing a list of maintenance jobs to do and stepping back. If the other 350 adult members want the boats they can turn out and practice their skills while I just provide the bits and some guidance. I wonder how many other long time committee members will step back a bit now? |
