Bumper Turn out at Burghfield.

There was a bumper turn out at Burghfield this weekend. Some say due to the the training arranged by Eddie McDonald and coached by Jonathan Lewis. Which was greatly appreciated.
We have had alot of fantstic feed back;
"I'd like to thank Jonathan for the coaching and Eddie for the loan of his boat on Friday evening.
The coaching was a great help and having met some of you I feel inspired to get a tow hook and attend some open meetings." Graeme Wigmore "I would like to echo Graeme's appreciation for Jonathan's coaching on Friday, I found it not only informative but enjoyable too, it quite inspired me to keep with it." Robert Norria
"The video debrief, was excellent, especially as my sailing was not being critically assessed! As has been mentioned already being able to see what you look like from outside the boat is invaluable, as at the BCYC training sitting forward and keeping the boat flat are the lessons learnt by everyone, even though the conditions could not have been more different." Christopher Greenwood
"My first time at an event like this and I really enjoyed it. I'm just glad Johnathan didn't choose to show any footage of me on the Friday. I learnt loads from watching the more competent sailors minor imperfections without being totally embarassed by my own bad habits." Tony Ingall
"I also would like to thank Jonathan for the illustrative way in describing my many faults.
On the water, hearing the word 'Superb', hightened my sense of achievement on missing the island. Unfortunately on the ensuing playback, it was used as the one example everybody had to remember how not to do a gybe. Ah well I learned from it!!
The use of the video / coaching, really helped. I really hope others got as much out of the training as I did. Thanks Jonathan, hopefully, I'm a wee bit better than I was." Gavin Steven

There is another training day for the Vareos before event at Weymouth which will be on the Friday 1st July and another training day for the 300s, at Draycote SC on Saturday the 13th August.
