Pirates Night a Great Success
Congratulations to Ian, Eileen, Sara and Cormac for organising a great night for young and old.
The evening was organised to mark the end of the Dinghy season but of course open to all. With facepainters, dressing up and delicious food it was a great night. The children had a ball. Pirates Dave, Ian, Yvonne, Declan, Kim were there to keep the crew under control.
Thanks all for a great night.

Some cruisers are preparing for next season already and with the transfer season now open Flyover has started to place some of its crew on the transfer list.
Lets have a look at what they have involved; Hard working. Alert crew available. …
Last Day of Sailing for September Series Great Success
Saturday 30th of September saw the last of the September series sailing.
14 Oppies on the water and for some of them, this was the first solo sail after sailing the Oppies initially double handed.
The idea of the series was to extend the season and to give our young sailors more time on the water. With the assistance of Dave Marsden, Andrea Quinlan and Barry McConnell as rescue coordinator
it was a safe event. Many parents assisted on the water and on the shore which made it a real family sailing morning.
There was an Optimist September series Trophy to be sailed as well and honours for this trophy went to Julia McConnell
Our congratulations to Julia and to the parents our thanks for all their help !
