Flag Officers Newsletter - April 2022

This weekend we welcome competitors coaches and family’s attending the 2022 RYA Youth Nationals,  hosted by Plas Heli and Clwb Hwylio Pwllheli Sailing Club, and we must start by thanking all the volunteers for their hard work preparing the pontoons, quayside, compound and indoor areas of the centre  ready for the event . 

This has involved reconfiguring and fitting new pontoons, installing electrical and water supplies on the new quay side camper van parking area,  consolidating  and upgrading waste disposal and recycling facilities, fitting flag poles and temporary fencing , configuring and upgrading the committee boats and, a spring clean  of our wonderful facilities.

With 283 entrants racing 194 boats, sailing on  four race areas, it’s going to be a real  spectacle, and we wish all the competitors the best of luck and hope all involved in this prestigious event, enjoy the fabulous sailing area and facilities  we are so lucky to call home.
