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!
