The annual firework night party raised £110 for the Weymouth lifeboat.  Members took over the galley and produced burgers, hot dogs and potatoes in their jackets to the attendant crowd who enjoyed the display from the club house.  The club's old and new branded clothing was on display and orders were taken for the new stock and brisk business was done on the reduced rail.

On the subject of clothing, the club was visited on the same day by models, make up artists and photographers from Musto. Keen to jump on the high street clothing bandwagon, their requirement was a photo shoot in a traditional sailing club rather than the sterile surroundings of the academy,so when the new Musto catalogue hits the floor see if you can spot familiar backgrounds, and Oh! the lovely blonde bouncing around the yard on one of the clubs spacehoppers!

The main sailing season ending with a 1970's themed evening at the club.  Guests were welcomed with a glass of Mateus Rose or Black Tower before sitting down to an appropriate meal that included prawn cocktail, Coq au vin and Black Forest gateaux.  The opportunity was taken to model the clubs new line in branded clothing, before the evening's activities of space hopper racing and dancing to a 70's disco that had everybody on their feet.
