Who was this boat???

As Commodore of the MYCV I’ve been contacted by The Authorities to help identify the Multihull that clipped the Phillip Island San Remo Bridge 2 weeks ago.

I advised, I would be surprised if it was a club member as they are all responsible and WITH TEETHS mast was surely too small.

Anyone with information please contact myself and I will report back to them. Maybe we need to check to top of all members mast?

The boat was last seen traveling at speed towards Hastings…..

FW: Social Meeting Friday 14th May

 

                                                      

On Friday 14th of May we have another informal social night organized.  Lisa Floyd (Chilli- didn’t even know they were married until I read the HYC news letter) Offered to cook dinner at HYC and follow up the next day with a race. If we race and want HYC to organize it for us, it has to be on a club day, hence better to postpone that idea for now and match up with HYC later in the year.

So we are looking for ideas????   Let me know by Friday 7th May and the committee of one will decide. Will post result Tuesday 11th May.

 

Happy Sailing.

May-Quote of the month...Isn't this true?

Through no Scientific corollary has yet been published, sailors, as people, tend to be frighteningly Jekyll-and-Hyde-like. Some of the nicest guys on land can be the meanest !&*?s on the water.
