Sail Sydney
MHYC had a terrific weekend of sailing at Sail Sydney. 130+ Optis battled it out in 3 fleets with some great racing before a timely abandonment. The 420s had a fleet of a small but extremely competitive fleet of 11 boats. MHYC was represented in both the green fleet and the silver fleet with almost all the sailors in either their first or second regatta!! They all sailed extremely well while fighting off the storms that plagued the weekend.

January LWE On-Water Event (In Shore)
Members – a quick “heads up” for our January on-water event.
The Cruising Division is assisting in providing a path for Junior Sailors (and their parents) to continue sailing. The idea is that we take them out for a fun day’s sailing on the harbour to show them what happens on bigger boats than their dinghys. After the day we plan to drop them off, then proceed up Middle Harbour for one of our traditional raft-ups. The idea has been enthusiastically received by the junior sailors so far.
Please let Phil Darling, darling@ozemail.com.au, know of your interest.
