Committee meeting minutes   Minutes of the committee meeting held on 21st January are available to view in the members' private pages.
Sunday Socials? Feb Pris thinks it might be nice to perk up Sundays with a bit of pre-season socialising at the Clubhouse. If you're at a loose end, how about bringing your sandwiches sometime between, say, 1200 and 1400, to look out on our beautiful river and have a natter (about boats of course!) with anyone else who happens to be there. Pris will try to be there as many Sundays as possible (with milk), but this would be a completely informal arrangement, with nothing laid on; so be self-sufficient. It's also pretty cold in there at this time of year, but we're all hardy souls - aren't we? As the year wears on, more people will be coming down anyway, but February can be a bit bleak. Think about it!

Arctic Antic Race & Lunch Fri 1 Jan Four boats took to the river in F3-4 winds and the best sunshine for days. The two leading boats were disqualified for sailing around a marker the wrong way, leaving Leslie Downing in Tempo (Streaker) the winner.
Afterwards, soup, mince pies and mulled wine were enjoyed by all. Thanks to Rupert & Jane Hannen, Rosa Saunders and sundry bakers-of-cakes.
Tide Timetables   The tide times for the whole of 2010 for Slaughden Quay have been loaded onto the SSC server and will become active on Jan 1st. Log on to the members' only pages to generate your own timetable to suit your needs (and save yourself the cost of one of those horrid little booklets!) For an explanation of how the tides are predicted, click on the grey Tides bar above.
Air Temperature   Now that winter has come, you will notice two temperature readings. The one in brackets refers to the effective temperature after taking wind chill into account and is the same as the dumb-downers at the BBC choose to call the "Feels Like" temperature!
