"Fleet 2000"
SYCSA's first project was achieved in 1999. We needed to increase the size of our training fleet; due to growing numbers of people, especially youngsters, who wanted to take up sailing. These numbers have continued to grow and when youngsters moved on new ones took their places.
The "Fleet 2000" project:
- 2 Wayfarer dinghies
- 6 Pico dinghies
- 1 Topper Topaz dinghy
- 1 rescue boat and motor
- 20 children's life jackets
