Working Party 3rd November - alas only 7 volunteers showed. Undeterred, we continued pulling up trees on the headland, started clearing many of the loose stones from it and filled track potholes with several tons of stone.

August Working Party - 10 members pulled up trees on the headland, cleared 'ankle breaker' stones from the dried area of the reservoir bed, burnt weeds between the paving at the clubhouse and fixed a downspout. A barbecue rewarded the hard work before many took to the water by mid-afternoon in F4-5 wind. Thanks!
Recreational Sailing 9th August - a popular Friday afternoon sail - see some photos.
Olympics - Britain's Emma Wilson dominated the heats of the iQ Foil races from Marseille, so went into the medal race without needing to compete in the quarter and semi-finals. A mistake at just one mark cost her though - bronze medal instead of gold. While in the men's, Sam Sills made it as far as the semi-finals. Coverage on iPlayer: BBC1 morning, Day 8 4hr 13 mins (Sam) & 4hr 40 mins (Emma). Find out more.

Anglesey 21st June weekend - good but not easy windsurfing in F5 and big swell at Rhosneigr Friday, then easier F4 Saturday, while others stayed at Newborough for a good high tide session there on Saturday. Some of our wingfoilers were at Rhosneigr too.

May Back to the Water weekend - 7 members camped Sat and Sunday, while some also stayed on late for a BBQ, drinks, table football & watching foiling on YouTube on Sat night. On the water there was a healthy mix of windsurfing, wingfoiling & paddleboarding in mostly light winds for Saturday. With less wind Sunday, attention shifted to canoeing & kayaking. Not the windiest weekend, but a successful and very sociable event anyway!
