Would You Like To Use a Club Feva?

Would you like use a Club Feva for the whole of the 2010 Summer season? - APPLICATION PERIOD NOW CLOSED

As you may know the Club has three RS Fevas available for members’ use.  In 2010 two of them will be assigned to individual helms for their use during the Club’s summer racing programme.

 

  • The two individuals will be able to sail ‘their’ Fevas in all scheduled weekend club races as if the boats were their own and they will be able to take the boats out in any wind strength.

 

  • They will be required to maintain the boats but the Club will pay for insurance, harbour dues, any uninsured damage and for replacement fittings and running rigging.

 

  • In return, the two individuals will be expected to look after the boats carefully, participate fully in the racing programme and, importantly, take part in sufficient Trophy Series races to obtain a qualifying position.
