Toe in the Water

toe_in_the_water_group_shotFollowing Steve White's visit to the club for the cruiser class dinner, he offered members the chance to experience the thrill and the hardship of sailing an Open 60.

Five keen boys and one keen girl met at The Boat That Rocked early one Saturday morning recently to take on the Open 60 and pop over to Cherbourg.

Mark and Rima's wedding

mark_and_rimaHas the club ever hosted the wedding reception of its Commodore before?

On Friday 4 June in glorious sunshine Mark and Rima Bugler arrived in the club to join friends and family to celebrate their marriage.  The club's safety boat resplendent with balloons and bunting and accompanied by Nigel Lawrence playing the accordian brought the happy couple across the harbour.

In his speech Mark thanked all the club members who had helped set the tables and decorate the Longshed for the reception and particularly Daphne Samways who created the cake in the shape of Saskia V.  The happy couple have set off on their honeymoon in Saskia V cruising the Normandy coast.

The club wishes them many years of happy sailing together.

'Michelle'
Friday the 28th May, Richard and Mary Reddyhoff joined the YOBs (Youths on Boats) to name the new safety boat. Dean and Reddyhoff Marinas donated the money to the YOBs so they could buy the boat and trailer.  They can now get more youngsters on the water with this extra safety cover.michelle
Mary named the boat "Michelle" because she was impressed with the amount of time Michelle Samways puts in to helping with the YOBs.  Michelle runs the safety cover for the YOBs and also looks after the RIB at Dean and Reddyhoff's Portland Marina amongst other duties.
Mary told the youngsters she hoped they appreciated the time that the YOB helpers give up to make sure they get to go sailing.
