Christmas drinks-7:30pm Bells Hotel Monday 30th November.

Well it’s that time of year again! And hasn’t the it gone fast? This year the last MYCV meeting for the year,  will be a casual affair to catch up with sailing friends.  There will be a  brief chat about

 The Nationals held at Hervey Bay in October and a  report on SOMR and AVW progress. Kicks off at 7.30pm at Bells Hotel in the upstairs room. Finger food will be provided with drinks at bar prices.

 

Guest speaker is David Williamson, who sailed on Kookaburra in the America’s Cup 150th Jubilee Celebration in August 2001, held on the Isle of Wight off the south coast of England.

All the old Americas Cups yachts competed including Australia 2… Just hearing about the logistics of getting all these great boats back together is interesting, plus the meeting with

Dennis Conner and John Bertrand.

 

Hope to see you all there, for those that can’t make it, have a Merry Christmas and a safe New Year and see you at Hasting Yacht Club for the Summer series or Audi Victoria Week.

 

Cheers

 

Tim Pepperell

Commodore.
