OPPORTUNITY TO FIND NEW CREW!

Calling all boat owners interested in participating in the Sunday 10am race on the 2^nd March. It is RBYC's goal to turn this event into a mini go sailing day, currently we have around 30 people who are interested in sailing. There are around ½ dozen that have sailed with limited experience but most are in-experienced.

The plan is to have them attend Phil Bedlington’s information night on the Friday before hand for a briefing, have a sail on the Sunday race then return to the clubhouse for a BBQ. The social club will shout the boat owners and experienced crew lunch and drinks, and also provide some small prizes towards the race. If you and your boat are interested in this opportunity to find new crew and also possible future members to RBYC then please contact Paul Michaud either via email: pmichaud@wgf.com.au or mobile 0402 440 771
