THE OPENING OF THE SOCIAL SAILING SERIES TO BE HELD ON SATURDAY 5th OCTOBER 2024
ALL MEMBERS ARE INVITED TO THE OPENING OF THE SOCIAL
SAILING SERIES
TO BE HELD ON SATURDAY 5th OCTOBER 2024
WBBC and the Sailing group invite all boat owners, families and crew to get involved in their own way. It could involve motoring around the bay, a row, a paddle, a sail.
We will commence this year’s Gordon McAllister Social Sailing Series with renewed gusto. This first sail will be a staggered start with new participating sailors commencing at 10.30am. We hope all boats will finish at a similar time. Ivan Saric is the Sailing Group Coordinator.
A lunchtime BBQ will be supplied and the bar will be open.
Gordon McAllister was an iconic, early member of WBBC and was renowned for his no nonsense approach to sailing and minimal rules. It is with this spirit the club encourages members to come along and have fun - mindful that safety on the water is the priority.
If you are new to sailing or a new member and you would like to gain more experience and confidence there may be opportunities to crew on participating boats. Contact Ivan or the club via email: westernbeachboatclub@gmail.com to express your interest.
Please see below the Calendar of Dates for the Social Sailing Series, the Course Map and the GPS readings of turning markers.
This is a great opportunity to meet other members and their families and enjoy our wonderful club.
See you all there!
