Another Great Cruiser Training Session!
Categories:
The CBYA regularly tries to offer its members opportunities to remember, renew and improve their sailing skills.
Our Boating Officer, Karlheinz Witte, therefore organised another special training in managing a sail boat which took place on Tuesday 14th November at the Marina de Dénia.
The course focused on how to manoeuvre a sailing yacht under motor, in order to smoothly leave and enter a berth in the Mediterranean area. read more →
Padel and Build Your Own Burger
Categories:
On Saturday, 4 November, members of the CBYA enjoyed a special day of padel and build-your-own burger at Paris 24 in Javea. This was, hopefully, the first of many more padel social events. All members who attended either had the chance to play or learn the technique, whilst some sat along the sidelines or enjoyed watching.
