How Not to Cross the Atlantic

Posted on by August 12, 2024

Dear Members,

Please see below the tantalising advert from El Buick on crossing the Atlantic Ocean on a Contessa 26′ sailing Yacht.  I for one am really looking forward to this event which follows on from Angel Arzola’s excellent presentation on sailing to/from and attending the Isle of Man TT from Troon.
There are other talks scheduled by members of our excellent Club on sailing experiences that will take place between this year and next year’s social Calendar, and hopefully long beyond.  If you would like to deliver such a talk to our members we will schedule it into the diary and assist with IT, Media etc, just get in touch.
We will provide a drink and a light 2 course meal for all attendees, the cost will be £10 per head, if you don’t wish to eat there is no charge, as always please advise of dietary matters where relevant.  If you wish to join us please contact myself or indeed any of the Council members (club email address or hugh996677@gmail.com, WhatsApp or Facebook) to book for what I am sure will be an excellent evening.
Many Thanks, Shug
