TCDYC Meet and Greet

The TCDYC tune up clinic will be a two day event held on the 5th and 6th of May at the Texas City Dike. We will have a camping permit and a fire permit. Last years event was a big hit. We hope this years event will be even better. (Possibly with a bit less wind.)


Sailing seminar 

The purpose of the clinic is twofold. First is to help people who are new to cat sailing improve their rigging and sailing skill and second to get new people involved in the sport. To do this the clinic will have several aspects.
     

  •  A lecture on the basics of catamaran safety, rigging, and sailing given but the TCDYC's own Chris Green
  • Pair up an experienced sailor with a new one in similar boats to go over basic rigging and sail trim. For instance pair up an experienced H16 sailor with a new H16 sailor
  • Have experienced sailors take new people for rides.
  • Ad hoc coaching and advice on the beach and on the water
These are the basic ideas but we would like to solicit any other suggestions and ideas you might have.

All races are abandoned. Further signals ashore.


Alas, the weather is not cooperating and we have made the difficult decision to cancel the "first ever" Maggie Gras Bitcin' Beach Bash Barbecue and Boat Race. Andrew and I have a major commitment in June requiring several months of preparation. Our weekends and many of our weeks are solidly booked until our departure. That precludes us from re-scheduling this event until at least mid-summer.
