Push the Boat Out - 2016
On Sunday 15th May Dovestones Sailing Club had a busy time at their RYA Push The Boat Out event. The club was open to anyone who wanted to try sailing for the day. The club is a RYA registered training club and so all new sailors were accompanied by trained instructors. The day was a great success. As well as the sailing, with lots of new sailors trying out this exciting sport for the first time, visitors and members also enjoyed a BBQ in the sunshine. Thirteen people joined the club and signed up for the Start Sailing Course on the day. They were enthused in some measure by Harriot Pullman who volunteered to help on the RYA stand set up to attract passers by. "She was our secret PR weapon," said RYA NW Sailing Development Officer Alan Jones.
