Club News - January

WYC Hits the Big Time

WYC recently appeared in YandY with an article, penned by our own Vice Commodore (who wants it noted that she's fully aware we sail on the Thames Estuary and not the "Thames" (printer error)). More ›

Watch this Space!

Hannah Stodel and Jack Kilburn are about to have the sailing experience of a lifetime! More ›

Last Night’s Explosion

Some of you may have heard that there was an explosion on one of the Club's Cadet beach last night (29th January). We have checked the boats and there does not seem to be any visible damage. I have left message with our local crime officer to contact me with details as soon as possible and if necessary will report then. WYC.

Newsfeeder

We are still having trouble with regard to the newsfeeder, you will have noticed that it is sending out ancient news items. I will discuss alternative software with the webmaster but, for the time being this service will be put on hold - please refer directly to the website for information. Kind regards. Melanie.

Open Pool Tournament - Wednesday 23rd January - 7.30 start

This tournament is open to one and all and the bar will stay open until 11. Also see the conversation thread on our Forum (link on this homepage under "Forum" - discussion is taking place in "The Lounge").

Ascot Comes to Whitstable Yacht Club - February 8

Fancy a flutter? £2 per head, including light snacks - put your name down behind the bar (or the office) ASAP. For those of you who have never attended a Horse Racing Night, it's great entertainment and certainly an evening not to be missed (volunteers needed for feeding horses....nosebags provided - sadly that was our Social Committee Chairman's joke!). Paddocks open at 7.30 for 8'o'clock start - a prize for the best hat!!

Live Weather Station - Courtesy of The Dinghy Store!

Click on the link http://www.whitstablemarine.co.uk/weather.asp and see how disgusting the weather is today (and for the next few days). The Dinghy Store have allowed us to link to this fantastic resource which can be found on their website. The weather station is actually on WYC's roof ....so it doesn't really get any more accurate than that and at no expense to the Club. Mel.

WYC Forum

This is now up and running and you will need to register to join in (see the above tab entitled "Forum"). The site has been split into different boat classes with one general forum (The Lounge) which can be used for a variety of topics. Please use this site responsibly - any mildly offensive comments will be removed and you may be blocked from using the site in future - remember this site can also be viewed by non-members! ALSO, please use your proper name - we wish the Forum to reflect our friendly club atmosphere. I'm sure you will all agree that this is a great tool and one which I am sure will prove useful to all sailing and non-sailing members - enjoy! Melanie
