Sailing clubs across the UK are being given the chance to host a Marlow Ropes Rope Show which includes talks on performance, maintenance and safety of ropes on a boat as well as a session on learning how to splice rope. And there are ten dates to win.
The rope show will begin in October and travel each month (though not August or September) to a different sailing club in the UK. No special requirements are needed but on the form Marlow indicates the dates will be decided on a first come first served (forgive that pun!) basis and if there is multiple interest for a particular date then a waiting list will be created. Obviously joint hosting with another club will be a good idea – all the dates are for a Wednesday evening. The workshops can accommodate a maximum of 50 individuals (including children over the age of 13) to include members and non-members depending on the club’s policy.
Four tutorials will cover:
- MAXIMISING PERFORMANCE
- ROPE MAINTENANCE & MANAGEMENT
- SAFETY & LIFETIME INDICATORS
- LEARN HOW TO SPLICE
The ROPE SHOW is free to host and Marlow will also supply prizes for the Club to use in a fundraising raffle or prize draw.
