Maintenance Day Sunday 15th November 2020
Optimism and energy were the dominant feelings amongst the enthusiastic group who met at the Batemans Bay Sailing Club at Hanging Rock last Sunday. We concentrated on our four 303 Dinghies to make sure that they were sparkling clean, and all the gear was readily available for our next Sailing day on Sunday December 6th at Nelligen.
A special welcome to Mark Durnan who has now moved to his house in Batemans Bay. He brings a wealth of experience with him after sailing competitively in 303s (he is a past National Champion) and in 2.4s, competing in Paraworlds, in Germany and the Netherlands. Apart from his experience on water, he has built up his expertise in boat maintenance and fibre glass work both on his own boats and as maintenance Officer with Sailability ACT.
Our crew also included Boudicca, Craig Allen’s dog, who is improving her social skills before Craig starts her training to become a registered Companion dog. We loved having her toothy grins and tailwags.
Big thanks to our volunteers Allan Rees, Kate and Tara Toyer with Rhian and James, Craig Allen, Mark Durnan. Martyn Lloyd, Christine Vincent, Peter Glen, and Andy Frantz, Damon and Cate McMath, Bob Richards, Dana Strain. Everyone contributed in different ways.
Thanks to for the use of the facilities at Batemans Bay Sailing Club, we really appreciate their support.
