Loyall 2026
It is only after considerable discussion
that we have decided to
DELAY the LOYALL SERIES
We have noted our series clashes with summer holiday plans and have had a drop in participants and boat owners being available.
SO, THE NEW DATES will be
21st September 1st skills night
28th September 1st sailing night
5th October 2nd Skills night
12th, 19th 26th Oct & 2nd Nov sailing nights.
I apologise if those already registered have not had an e-mail before reading this notice
I have endeavoured to get around those already registered, our great sponsors and support personnel to inform them of the changes.
Vonnie and Heleen.

IN CASE YOU MISSED
* All sailors MUST pre register, at least 2 weeks prior to the first race night (28th Sept)
* Each boat's skipper will create a Whatsapp group for his team and will be in contact with his crew before each race.
* In case of high winds or heavy rain you will be informed by 3pm if the racing is cancelled. BUT we will hold a skills night instead.
* Your entry fee is paid to the start tower prior to or after the race.
* Spot prizes will be drawn out of the hat each race night, so any crew member present at the clubrooms can win.
* Just in case you forgot, have fun!
