Successful First Cruise of the Season

Published 01:00 on 19 Apr 2022

The first cruise of the season took place on Easter Monday, 18 April. At 11:00, twenty-four members set off in 10 dinghies most, fortunately, carrying outboard engines; the wind died when they were approaching the East Brambles buoy! By 12:30, they had all reached East Cowes.

After lunch at the Shoreside Café, with a perfect 15kn of wind on the beam, they flew back to Hill Head with the lead boat landing after a mere 45 minutes of sailing.

Photographs of the cruise may be viewed in the Gallery.

Members may access a report of the cruise from the CRUISING/Cruise Reports menu (here).
