serious fall in income. This also covers for the uniform deposits we hold but is addition to any funds

Chairman's Re
ort
Dear Parents, Guardians and Suppoiter5.1 would like to welcome you all to T.S. Implacable this
evening for our Annual General Meeting.
Buildin
rounds maintenance.
With the large plot of land we have, continued gi-ounds tnainlenance is essential. Thank you to Joe
for the I'egular cutting of the grass and general tidying around the unit. At last christmas's work
paity the priority wa5 the cutting back of the hedge and li'ees boi'dering the pavement, Ihis was
completed with considerable help from vai'ioiis parents. Although not as overgrown as last year,
they could now do with a triin to keep in check.
This year we have completed the redecoration of the main deck with help from Nathan Cable. In
addition the extei'ioi. of the unil has almost been completed with just a i'eai. wall & the black plinth
to finish. There are still some internal areas we wish to redecorate, beiiig the galley flats & coi'ridor,
and the cadet heads.
The main project this past year has been the replacement of the Norniandy Block which is almost
complete. The new cabins, forming the Essex Complcx, are fully functional and in use, the final
parl of this project. the installation of a canopy over the three walkways, was completed last week.
The total budget for this project is in the region of £30K which has been funded from grants, a
legacy donation, cadet fundi'aising and a private donation.
We have also completed an upgrade to our IT infrastructure, WiFi is now available throughout the
unil and several new laptops have been purchased. This will provide accessibility lo the online cadel
training programme in all classi'ooms.
Oui. next major project will be the inslallalion of solai. pane15 and batterys, we shall also be
considcring reconfiguring more of the heating to electric, pait of our emphasis on inaking the unit
more sustainablc.
To fuither improve our infi'asti'uctur¢ we have a list of future projects to undertake.
New flooi'ing galley Ilals & main passageway
Er)large and resurface the car park to providc a surface suitable for a parade ground.
Install fence to front of unit border of hedge & pavement

Thc future of the Range, being built from conci'ete pancls and posts which are deteriorating, and has
significant movemenl within the structure. As this is not going to be used as a range again we havc
decided that at some lime in Ihe future this will be demolished. We would like it to be replaced with
a largei., self contained building and have had some basic ouilinc plan5 drawn up but would cost in
excess of £S00K.

facilities.
We conlinuc to be members of the Isldnd YaLhi Club with the use of Iheii. facilities and boat
storage. To date we haven't bcen invoiced for diis years fees but last years was £1326.00 and each
year it increascs by RPI.
Our fleet of dinghy is CUlTently standing at 3 quests, 3 Picos, a Laser 2000 and 2 RS Fevas, we also
have 2 Trinity's foi. rowing aiid oui. Power boats stand at 2 Ribs, a Jaffa litgiflex and d Halmatic.
We are cun'elltly looking ut our realistic rcqiiii'einents and any su]ylus MSSC oThmcd will bc
IransfetTed to othei- units. Tliis will help reduce our liability to the Yacht club. We will continue to
monitor ihc cost of the meinbership and the value lor money in relation to the boating houi's tn case
another option oi. facility arises.
lJnfortunately without a senioi. sailing instructoi. at Ihc uiiit wc have to i'ely on the docks for our
sailiiig but we have been Inaking good use of the IYC for rowing and power boating.
MiniBus
All running well and ULEZ conipliant so no extra cost for attending the docks. Regular independent
safely inspections are beiiig complcted in line with section 19 pennit requirements and all repair
rceommendations are implemented.
Fundraisin
We held another successful collection at Tcsco last week and having a card reader certainly paid
off, we raised just over £600.00 which we will use to subsidise the many off shoi'¢ courses the
cade15 have bcen on this year. We have applied to other superniarkets but aTe still awaiting a reply.
l.ast month the cadets also participated in a sponsored walk which will be at least 30 /0 match
funded.
Volunteers
This year we also welcomed severa] new members to the team, Lt. Cdi.. Ri¢hard Walsh has joined
the unit after spending many years as part of thc dislrict team, P() Keith Chapman has moved to us
frorn Chelmsford unit, Symon Kidson who last week completed the training requirements and has
been promoted to Pi'ovisional Petty OfFicer and John Duffy as unit assistant.
We are always looking to add some new volunteers to our sea cadet family so we can continue to
offer the amazing sea cadet oppurtunitics to our young people. There are various roles within ihe
unit from unit assistants, civilian instructors to the management team.
If you can spare a little time please see either the O.I.C, Joe or myself for moTe infomation or ernail
the unit.
Finally I would likc to thank all the staff and committee for your dedication, working togetheT to
deliver the Cadet Experience. A big thank you lo the various parents who havc helped wit
transportation. And not forgetting to all the cadets for the effort they have put in making this
another very successful year.
Yours,
Alan Fricdrich
