Calendar

We have very few events, generally getting together only for our Annual Regatta at Vaucluse Yacht Club in Watsons Bay.

The weekend starts at 6pm on the Friday night with a BYO BBQ in one of the most popular wedding locations in Sydney. We sit out on the deck at the chairs and tables chatting and swapping stories, watching the sun slowly set over the Harbour Bridge.

The BBQ is warmed up and people start to cook their steaks and fish. VYC provide,glasses, cutlery and plates. It is a wonderful night as people who only know each other on the Internet, come together and put names to faces and boats. Finally all goes quiet as most people go home. Some retire aboard their yachts while the "Desperate and dateless" can sleep on the floor.

On the Saturday, activity starts about 10am getting ready for an 11am Start, boats are arriving and making sure they have their entry form and fees in. We are generally back on mooring about 1pm. About 2pm the prizes are given out. By 3pm we clear the club and moorings. This leaves time for those going to the Annual Compass Raft-up in Sugarloaf Bay to make the 3.30pm Spit Bridge opening. On Sunday members start drifting off from 7.30am.

This years 2023 Regatta is CANCELLED due to the SailGP contest on the Harbour 12th February, 2022.

We will hold a Low Key Get Together at Vaucluse Yacht Club on Friday night 11 Feb from about 6pm. Attendance is easiest by Ferry to Watsons Bay. If you can't find the draw bridge to get in - Ring Geoff 0417 203 146

The BBQ is fully self catered and there are no shops open at Watsons Bay. If coming by Ferry/Bus you'll need grog and food. The Train/Ferry/Bus service is excellent.

We usually have a small but dedicated turnout on these odd-years when taking boats is difficult.

Doug and Lynne and myself look forward to meetingour Old and New friends there - 200 Mt south of the ferry wharf - parking gets easier after 7pm
