Cruise Weekend - October 29th & 30th

by

The club is trying to organise an overnight cruise to one of the islands on the weekend of 29th & of 30th October.

At this point in time there is no firm destination as it will be dependent on the weather. However, Brampton Island is the current frontrunner.

An email has been sent to all the club boat owners but if you are interested in tagging along and aren't a member or didn't get the email feel free to contact me at the email address below. All boats are welcome, power boats included!

For tbe racers in among you there is a suggestion that we re-sail one of the cancelled Offshore races. This will depend on enough boats committing to make up a fleet.

Please do not hesitate to get in touch should you wish to discuss anything further.

 

Regards,

 

Jim Harrison

Social Sailing at MYC 2018

SOCIAL SAILING

 Social sailing is an activity that the club runs on some Saturdays throughout the year. This is something the anyone can participate in. 

Further details are available under Sailing in the main menu above.

We meet at the marina at 12 noon and are usually back in by 4. So if you want to join us contact Bob on 4956 2618 or mazandbob01@bigpond.com and reserve a spot.

You don’t even have to have been out on the water on any sort of boat. You will now have the chance to go for a quiet sail on a yacht to get an idea of what sailing is all about. You will be taken out with an experienced skipper and crew and you will get a chance to try steering the vessel and trimming the sails. Or you can just sit back and relax.

 

The following dates are possible social sailing days.
