Fall Pullout - Always a bit sad.


Who needs a mast....or even sails?
With summer-like conditions continuing, it was a hard call - but this weekend saw all of the club's CL 11s, Gerrit's CL14 and Claire's dinghy and kayak put away for the season. The Squadron 13 is still onshore and ready for a sail however for those of us who just can't let go of summer!

Eric and Clair Atkinson were out, taking advantage of the wind, screaming around the harbour in their Olympic class 470. Unfortunately, they didn't come close enough for any action shots. Not sure why they thought that would be more fun than scrubbing boats and pulling them up the hill.....

One thing is clear - we really need to do something about updating the logos on the boats!

Thanks to Gerrit, Dan and Claire for the helping hands. Thanks also to Claire's kids for coming out full of youthful energy!

Who needs a paddle?

A bit of fall cleaning.






The hard part.

Fall Boating

With fall masquerading as summer, it couldn’t be a better time to be out on the water. Here’s a great shot from last fall!
