Welcome to Weymouth Sailing Club
|
The 2010 Weymouth Sailing Club Handbook is completed and will be distributed to members in the next couple of weeks.
Every season there is fierce competition to get onto the front cover. This year the crew of Farr Out performed this spectacular broach for the benefit of the camera and have been awarded the honour.
Thanks must be extended to Mike Fenwick and Adrian Patterson for their work putting together the sailing programme. Also much appreciation must go to Chris Olding who persuades the advertisers to contribute. And many thanks to the advertisers themselves for continuing to support Weymouth Sailing Club.

The club was packed to the rafters for the annual cruiser class dinner, which played host to two specials guests Gary Fookes, Atlantic rower and Steve White circumnavigating yachtsman.
After tucking into a massive six course meal prepared and presented by Alison and Pete in the galley, Gary Fookes delivered a highly amusing talk on his endeavours to construct an Atlantic class rowing boat and row it across to the Caribbean, plus his sailing exploits in the Mediterranean and his part in the Olympic delivery on which he has promised to come back to the club and give a presentation to members when things are firmed up.

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.
