The new season is now well underway, I hope you are all enjoying your sailing.

Over the winter Simon had the oppotunity to join the Eastern Regional Topper squad. Part of his home work has been watching TV and playing games on the internet. Over the next few months I will be publishing information on some of the better sites which you might like to look at?

I am starting with the RYA website, the following link will take to a number of videos which will help you with a range of sailing skills for Topper, Optomists and a range of other boats.

Have a look

The next tip.

Reading the rule book is boring, difficult and we all have more fun things to do with our time. Unfortunately it does help us win or atleast beat our mates.

The following link may help learning the rule more fun and easier being based on a quiz with lost of animation. With 3 levels, easy to difficult it will be a challenge for all abilities.

Once you have had a few practice runs you might want to challenge your parent and or friends, you may find out they don't have a clue!

Best of luck wih your sailing.
