Welcome New Members
Andrew Cox
If you ever see a prospective new member walk into the club, please be on your best selling behaviour! We constantly want to grow our fleet and increase the depth and engagement of our membership base – and new members are a great way to do that.
In case you are wondering, our racks look full, but they are never actually full. There are boats on Level 5 that are rarely or even never used – and we keep them there because they pay their way. But, if we can replace them with an active sailor’s boat, we will. All members whose boats are infrequently used are aware of this. So, if someone asks about a rack spot, the answer is ALWAYS YES. Get their details and pass them on to Emily Ball or one of the Flag Officers.
And in case the idea of being on Level 5 is a turn off for them, our rack policy is clear – members will move rapidly down the racks if they sail more and volunteer more. It is that simple. So Level 5 does not have to be a long term position! Please make sure they know that too.
