Go Sailing magazine - By now all club members should have received the Annual Go Sailing Magazine with details of all the Major Events in the sailing and boating calendar this coming season. It was mailed to the address of all registered club members as at July31st 2006.
Silver Cards - by now all club members should have received their new silver cards .for the season (provided you have paid your club fees). If you haven't, please check with your club. Remember the racing rules of sailing require all skippers (rule 46) and all crews who compete in more than 3 races per season (rule 55) to be club members and therefore have a silver card.

It's on our website under "About YV". Just click on it.
