Twilight Captain – Nick Murphy
The Race: We had a strong breeze for Summer Race 5, a North Easterly at around 13 knots. It was very gusty and we had quite a few boats rounding up at times, but no protests.
We had a 58 boats starting and all finished.
New crew: We have 3 crew looking for yachts at the moment. If you have room, please consider taking a new person out for a sail. This could be just a once-off sail or a more regular arrangement. If you have room for a newcomer, please contact our Membership Secretary, Chris Gaskell, using the Contact Form or directly on 0432 018 081.
Australia Day Race: Don’t forget that Wed Jan 27 is the Twilight Race that is eligible for Australia Day Medals
Thanks: We wish to thank our Course Setter, Mark Rhodes, and our Starters, James Curr and Jasmine Curr.

Our hard-working Social Secretary Glenda is still enjoying her well-earned break.
