About
John & Ann Whitehead took over from John Feltham who retired after his sterling work in 2007.  John’s philosophy is … “if a number of people do a little bit for the Association it not only makes it easier for the local coordinator but also enriches the local group, because different individuals have different skills, contacts and intimate knowledge of their local area.”  John would be pleased to hear from you if you can help in some way.

Tides, Tides, Tides - most of us know you have to work the tides when sailing the East Coast. When trying to organize events which enable boats to attend from different places and directions it gets more challenging, but not impossible. However it does mean there are fewer really suitable dates to hold meetings afloat.  In 2008 events were held at the Swale/Harty Ferry, a joint meeting with the Westerly Association at Brightlingsea and an end of season dinner at Pin Mill.
