Welcome to Weymouth Sailing Club
The heady smell of a rich creamy blue cheese, the wiff of garlic plus the gentle splash of waves against the hull of a boat; no, this was not Deauville but the club Saturday evening.
This was France without the twelve hour journey.
Commodore and Vice Commodore hosted the annual cruising evening which encourages people to cross the Channel into an evening of "why bother, when it's better here"; treated the throng to a display of Oyster opening and then shared them out before Peter and Alison in the galley provided a meal that would have put any restaurant across "La Manche" to shame. An endless supply of moules and frites with French bread was followed up with a platter of classic French cheeses washed down with coffee.

Good weather over the weekend saw a lot of activity in the yard with boat owners working hard on the winter refits. While some were scrubbing and painting, the social team met to confirm dates for a summer programme of events; a list of dates will be sent out with the new Handbook or you can find them on the website calendar. 
One new date in the diary is a New Members' Party planned for Friday 21 May 2010. Jane Buckle has taken on the role of making sure that our new members are welcomed to the club. She met up with several new members in the club this weekend.

 Even though the sailing season has come to a temporary halt the club has been chock-a-block with members. A Quiz Night organised by Lynn and Ray Capp on Thurs 21 January saw a turnout of 60 members forming teams to compete in a very closely fought competition. This very successful evening will be repeated on Thurs 18 Feb and 25 March. Details will be sent out later.

For the second year in succession the Squib Walk, held last Sunday 17th Jan. was blessed with beautiful sunny weather despite heavy rain and fog on the days before and after. Eight people enjoyed a pleasant 2 hour walk over the hills surrounding Plush. Some of us were glad to be able to take a breather while the group stopped to admire the fantastic views from the hill tops.
After the walk we enjoyed a delicious lunch and a drink at the Brace of Pheasants.
The next walk will be Feb 21st more details to follow
