Originally they were distributed around the county at various schools and Youth Groups but the majority were then based at Filby Broad County Sailing Base when it opened in 1961. Thousands of Norfolk youngsters had their first sailing experience in a Bittern and many have gone on to have illustrious sailing careers. In the early 1970s, having served their purpose, the Bitterns were sold into private ownership. In 1990 a group of owners formed the Bittern Owners Association with the sole purpose of keeping the Bitterns sailing. At the current time 33 Bitterns are registered, many having been restored to their original condition, but others have been lost through the years. The BOA would be very interested to hear from anybody who knows the fate or whereabouts of any unregistered Bitterns. BROADLAND & COASTAL CRUISING CLUB BACCC Broadland & Coastal Cruising Club on Surlingham Broad Photo – Roger Black The Broadland and Coastal Cruising Club is a small, friendly club. It was formed as a low cost no frills club, offering members cruises in company both on the Broads and short coastal trips. At most Club nights we have a speaker, or something of interest. We also offer short training courses if required. We meet on the last Friday of the month at The Lodge Country House, Salhouse, NR13 6HD.

    • Edition 5 • April 2011 Spring Has Finally Sprung and We Have an Abundance of Exciting Things Planned for This Year at TBYC!

    www.tbyc.org • Edition 5 • April 2011 Spring has finally sprung and we have an abundance of exciting things planned for this year at TBYC! Firstly the Summer Glitter Ball on June 4th has had a huge response, and 170 of you have bought tickets - making it a massive sellout event! So ladies and gentlemen, have your sequins, diamonds and sparkles at the ready for what is guaranteed to be a fantastic night. April will be a busy month, not only for TBYC but also London, with the Royal Wedding on April 29th. We are planning a big Royal Wedding Party on that night with a red, white and blue “Back To The 80's” theme, so don't miss out on one of the biggest parties of the year! Not forgetting the Easter weekend hog roast on Sunday April 24th. Keep your eyes peeled for tickets and ticket discounts for those who buy them for both events. These will be on posters around the club and on the website. Let us know if you have been to any great events elsewhere and would like to see them at TBYC, whether it be a casino night, a cocktail party or beer tasting. Let us know - we would love to have your great ideas! Finally, we are going to start offering a combined ticket booking discount for certain events, like the hog roast and Royal Wedding party, and people who attend the Christmas party will receive a discount on tickets for New Year’s Eve. We hope this will encourage more ticket buying and bookings! Kylie Hello, I would like to introduce myself to you.

    Yachting Victoria Inc ABN 26 176 852 642 2 / 77 Beach Road SANDRINGHAM VIC 3191 Tel 03 9597 0066 Fax 03 9598 7384 YACHTING VICTORIA YARDSTICKS - 2013-14 Date: 1st Oct 2013 Version: 1.0 INTRODUCTION These yardsticks are prepared to provide the fairest possible calculation of results for mixed fleet racing. New and modified classes appear every year and it is important to gather information and review results as quickly as possible. For dinghy classes there have been no changes to the original Yardsticks published for the 2013/14 season, as results for review have not been forthcoming. In the absence of race results data for dinghy classes and new internationally sourced classes, where there is yardstick data from overseas available, a comparison is made with other international classes to derive an equivalent Yachting Victoria yardstick value. This is explained further down in this document. Fortunately for catamaran classes, there has been significant work done by the Kurnell Catamaran Club in reviewing various catamaran ratings, as well as validating the ratings against the international SCHRS system. This work has now been incorporated into the YV yardsticks for catamaran classes. Much appreciation goes to KCC for this good work. Catamaran yardsticks are now contained in a separate document: “YV - Cat Yardsticks13_14 v1.0” USE OF THE YV YARDSTICKS A club which intends to run a race or event under the Yachting Victoria Yardstick system should include in the Notice of Race and in the Sailing Instructions clauses based on the following: 1 The version of the YV Yardstick System that is to be used in calculating the mixed class fleet racing results.
