Car Washing

The team will be at Sussex Yacht Club on the 30th Jan 2010 to wash cars before / during the AGM. This is to raise money to fund their Cowes Campaign. So, if you need your car washed please go and support them !

Sponsored Swim

The team had a practice weekend to start training for Cowes week this week. They will be racing Sonars in the white fleet. They are still raising money to finance their sailing so at the end of the sailing session they had a sponsored swim in the harbour. The water temperature was only 3.5 deg C. At this temperature without any protection from the water you would be dead within 8 minutes.... As well as a safety boat in the water they had someone with a stop watch to make sure they were out of the water before hypothermia started..
