Helley Hanson Salopettes with 'Zoe' name
HSC Secretary - Job Description
This is an important role within the club. You will be working closely with the commodore (Rachel) and the other officers, to keep the club running smoothly. You will have use of a club laptop that is set up to access to the files and information that you will need to do the job. We are looking for an organised person who has time to do this role and who can work well with the existing team, being an effective communicator. In return, I believe that the more that you put in to the club, the more that you will get out of it.
Steve and Elaine Jolly have been doing this role, but are now ready to hand it over to somebody new. They have it well organised, so it should be a smooth handover. There is no requirement to attend committee meetings, although you would be most welcome if you wish to join.
This is a job role that has been missing from Hollowell for many years, but it would be fantastic to have an imaginative and organised person on board, especially with the 60th anniversary approaching. The membership and social committee meets twice a year for an evening meeting of approximately 1 hour on Zoom, it would be good if you could attend, or send an update for these meetings.

**** This is NOT a change to our Sailing Instructions.****
START FINISH tile In the above example 'S' marks the start line. Note that in this instance on the second lap the 'S' mark has to be kept to the right but it is possible for the boat to choose a route that either:-
a) Goes between the committee boat and mark 'S' OR
b) Goes behind the committee boat and then tacks to head towards 'H'.
After 5 laps or if the shortened course flag is flying, boats must pass between the committee boat and 'S' in order to finish.
LINE tile According to our Sailing Instructions the mark 'S' can also be used to form a GATE that each boat MUST pass through on each lap.
“A tile showing ‘LINE’ may be shown on the course board as the start and finish, and if so then an imaginary line between the committee boat and a buoy marked ‘S’ or a danbuoy forms a gate and every boat must pass upwind through the gate at the end of each lap.”
In this case putting the ‘LINE’ tile below S mark indicates the *GATE and all boats on every lap, must pass between the committee boat and mark 'S'. This is very useful for large events where a long start line is needed and makes it easier for the ADO to count the number of laps.
*There is a tile marked GATE in the box. It should NOT be used for normal Series races. This is for windward/leeward courses at special events and requires expert mark laying and a briefing for sailors taking part.
