This year, our annual Catamaran Clinic takes place on July 5, 6 and 7, 2024 at the Newell Sailing Club. Planned activities over the three days include capsize recovery practice, team upwind/downwind sailing, general  sailing with introductory rides for those interested in catamaran sailing and 3 basic rules in practice.  Other activities as well depending on interest.

You are more than welcome to join us, even if you are not a member. The weekend will be structured as a social, educational and sailing event:

• A flexible agenda of events will be scheduled (weather and wind conditions permitting).
• Useful information will be shared concerning boat maintenance and safety.  
• Participants are responsible for bringing their own food and beverages.    
• We will charge a small fee per boat of $30 for the weekend. If you don’t bring your own boat, you can still come along. In that case a small donation would be appreciated.           

Things to Bring

• Maybe your catamaran if you have one (but not required)
• Personal Flotation Device (Mandatory)
• Wet Suit or whatever keeps you warm and comfortable.
• Extra parts, tools and tape:  you never know what you might need, be prepared.
• Food and beverages (BBQ will be available for cooking)

Please, register below if you plan to attend. We will get in touch with you closer to the date. Also, note that there are no tents allowed on the Club grounds.
