Happy New Year to you all and let’s hope 2022 will be better than 2021. A big thanks to all the people that helped organise the club Christmas Party and the crew behind the scenes that helped with the New Year’s Eve Wangi Community Fireworks. Both events were a huge success.
Too windy, too light, too rainy, I’m over climate change. Throw in COVID and I can’t wait for 2022, however we still have a few good things happening to finish the year off.
Sailing is now underway
Pointscore racing for yachts is now underway which has been strongly welcomed by sailors. Just a reminder that the onus is on skippers to comply with the ever changing COVID restrictions. Now that travel restrictions on Sydney & Central Coast residents has been lifted, we are able to welcome back a few more boats and crews.
