So You Wanna Sail?

29 August 2013 By Alan

Long time readers of MyPE will know that I have a soft spot for a bit of sailing on the briny and am a staunch supporter of our local sailing club – ABYC.

Sailors can be a strange bunch when you first meet them – they tend to gaze off into the horizon, wear strange clothes and have an aura of capability and calm about them that can only be wrought from miles at sea and weeks from land.

I always tell anyone that I can pigeon hole for 30 seconds that sailing taught my children how to take responsibility for their actions and gave them a confidence way beyond their years. That their marks actually improved when they started sailing was just a bonus.

Now that I have got you all excited about sailing I would like to personally invite you to the Alogoa Bay Yacht Club in the Harbour on Saturday 7 September from 11:00 am. The ABYC under the capable hands of Ronnie Baer will be holding a meeting for all dingy and sailing school sailors and extend an invite to potential sailors as well.

Contact Ronnie on 082 928 4970 for more information.
