Use of Single Handed Club Dinghies

​Dear Club Member
 
Use of Club Single Handed Pico & Laser Dinghies
 
We are now able to make the club’s single handed dinghies available in a responsible manner that is consistent with NI Executive restrictions.
 

1. Club single handed dinghies will be available for limited periods on Tuesday and Thursday evenings and Sunday afternoons
2. Use is subject to presence & oversight of a nominated committee member.
3. Please email honsec.newtownardssc@gmail.com in advance if you wish to make use of a single handed dinghy.  It is essential to do so in order to ensure appropriate steps are taken to treat shared hard surfaces before and after use.
4. Social distancing must be adhered to at all times. Please be aware of the risks with shared hard surfaces – this includes taps, buckets, boat hulls and dagger boards etc. Please use the sanitiser provided at marked locations around the dinghy park.

 
Please note safety boat cover will not be available. Accordingly, you must realistically (and honestly) assess your ability to sail in the conditions. It is imperative that you remain well within your comfort zone and do not take unnecessary risks.

Should you have any queries or concerns regarding this notice, please email honsec.newtownardssc@gmail.com
