The Winter Solstice has passed and we are now on our way to longer warmer days….. We have experienced quite substantial rain in recent weeks, filling up our dams and washing the bird mess and dust off the decks, getting things ready for summer! 

The Committee is busy finalising the events calendar and we are hoping to get some racing going very soon, we are planning to host some fun racing, cruising and social events throughout the year, so please come down and support all the events, the club needs your support! 

In the meantime, come enjoy some social time at the club, even on the rainy days, the indoor fire is lit so it’s warm and cosy inside with a view of the boats being washed down by the rain on their moorings or on the sunny days, enjoy a braai on the stoep!! 

The pergola at Mongoose Park partially collapsed recently, some of the old wooden beams had rotted through. We are looking at alternatives to replace and upgrade this. 

Thanks to those boat owners who have responded to the request for information re COF, insurance, mooring agreement, skipper’s ticket, radio licence, contact details etc. Wilhelm is building a database which will link these and facilitate queries and reports to assist keeping on top of these important details going forward. 

See you at the club!
