The yacht twilight series has been run and won for another year, with many positions in the final race deciding the outcome in both divisions.
Despite light breezes and fading light (in fact total darkness), most of the fleet made it home last Friday on a perfect evening, with the free BBQ at the club afterwards proving to be real hit with a great roll up and a good night had by all.
A vert big THANK YOU from all crews to all of the volunteers who have opened the club each week for spectators and started and finished the races this year (we don’t know how you managed in the dark last week?) …. without your dedication and support the series simply would not be possible. A job well done (again).
As we all know, every boat that gets on the water on a Friday night is a winner, but to those who fought it out for the pointscores and filled the top placings, congratulations and well done. The handicappers are after you for next season!

Just a reminder that the Yacht Presentation dinner is on Saturday May 26th, starting from 1815 (or 6.15pm for land lubbers). It’s always a good night so be sure to book early to guarantee a berth. Invitations will be emailed to everyone soon.
The winter series starts the week AFTER Easter, so let’s hope the late summer extends for another month or so and we can get a good fleet on the water for this series.
