Marina Yarras Edge- Dockland stopover.

Gents,

The Marina sent us the wrong fax number. If you are faxing your “Visiting Yacht Registration form” the correct fax number is: 03 9681 8397

Please get them in ASAP so all the Multis are together.  Thanks Tim

Skandia Geelong Race Week 2009

Hi All, Below is a brief run down on the sailing and social program for the multihull class for 2009 SGRW. There may be some changes and more detail will be forthcomming, but it gives you an idea of what to expect so you can prepare. The MYCV has worked closely with RGYC and the SGRW Principle race officer to come up with an exciting and varied program that bodes well for one of the best ever Multihull Regatta's in Melbourne. 1. Multihulls can Berth free of charge at RGYC from Saturday 17th onwards. When arriving via sea, please call the marina mobile and talk to Paul 0418 524 867. He will point you to your assigned marina berth. If arriving via road, call Rob Hampshire the Sailing Administrator on 5229 0730 or 0437 689 928 and he will direct you to the closest launching ramp, trailer park and berthing. 2. Monday 19th of January: 10am-4pm. Measuring of sails, spot safety checks. If you need your boat weighed please advise by Monday the 12th so we can organize.
Multi Muster: 6 pm followed by welcome dinner ($25 per head) and briefing. 3. Tuesday 20th of January: 2 short races around fixed marks on Corio Bay or a windward and return course around RGYC marks. Start time to be confirmed. Multi Muster: 6pm. Drinks and tall stories. 4. Wednesday 21st of January: Passage race to Martha Cove with overnight stop over. Course to be confirmed depending on weather conditions. Please view attachments and book into the marina. ($40 per boat). Multi Muster: 6pm. At Safety Beach Yacht Club for a BBQ dinner, refreshments and briefing. (price to be confirmed) 5. Thursday 22nd of January: Passage race from Martha Cove to Melbourne. Please view attachment for Marins YE (Yarra's Edge) Docklands. The majority of boats will stay here. The stop over is 2 nights at $50 per night. Please book ASAP. It would be great to get all competing boats in the same marina. Multi Muster: 6pm. Place to be confirmed. 6. Friday 23rd of January: Lay day. Sit back and relax and watch the Quickskips crew sail in the final of the “Audi King of Docklands” race and win a car. Only problem, they have taken the training wheels off and are competing in monos..... Multi Muster: 6pm. Place to be confirmed. Celebrate the win with Quickskips crew.(Rob to shout the bar!) 7. Saturday 24th of January: Passage race from Williamstown to Geelong. This is the 150th year of this race and will probably be the largest fleet ever with over 400 yachts competing. When arriving at RGYC use the moorings on the west side of the marina so we can all stay together. (Can someone please reserve a mooring for Shuttle, last year he arrived in darkness) Multi Muster: Place to be confirmed. Lets drink and party! 8. Sunday 25th of January: 1 or 2 races yet to be confirmed around fixed marks or around Corio Bay. Multi Muster: 6pm.
