  • Mid–Year Newsletter June 2014
    Mid–Year Newsletter June 2014 ‘Jezebel’ Antoni Perri’s home built traditional Whitehall design clinker winner of the Inverloch and District Lions Club Perpetual Trophy South Gippsland Yacht Club Commodore With the success of the first of the Classic Wooden Dingy Regattas behind us it is now the time to look to the future of this event. The Regatta has given great exposure to SGYC both in the local community and with sailors near and far but the momentum needs to be kept going. Much of the success of the event was the result of the enthusiastic contributions of the Inverloch and District Lions Club, Inverloch Rotary Club, Inverloch Historical Society, Inverloch and Melbourne business partners, Bass Coast Shire Council, members of South Gippsland and other yacht clubs and wooden dinghy enthusiasts. The Classic Wooden Dinghy Committee, a sub-committee of SGYC, is now looking for ways to attract more boats and a wider public audience for the 2015 Classic Wooden Dingy Regatta. I would encourage any interested club members to involve themselves in the planning by joining the Regatta committee. The future of the SGYC is very important for both myself and club members and an event such as this regatta engages with the community and exposes sailing to the wider public which inturn will attract new members and in particular juniors who are the club’s future. The Regatta’s purpose is to exhibit, on and off the water, examples of wooden dinghies once sailed around Victorian beaches but now quite rare. These classic wooden dinghies would be from the beginning of the 20 century to about 1970.

The £100 prizes are awarded those who represent a particular sport at a national or international level. This may be as part of a national development squad, competing for their country or having achieved a national title. Asked about his World championship victory, Jack Lewis said, “I can just concentrate when I’m sailing. I knew we had beaten the second place pair and I felt really happy and Lucas had the biggest grin on his face ever!” Jack and Lucas have started this season’s sailing where they left off last From left to right: Jack Lewis - RS Feva Junior European and World year, winning the first Volvo RS Feva Champion and RS Tera Pro National Champion; Ben McCann – RYA West and Grand Prix at Northampton Sailing North Zone Windsurf Champion (Bic Techno 7.8); Daniel Lewis – RS Feva Club in April.

  • International Sailing Canoe World Championship on San Francisco Bay
    For Immediate Release International Sailing Canoe World Championship on San Francisco Bay Point Richmond, CA, August 26, 2014 -- Sailors from Australia, Canada, Germany, Great Britain, Sweden, and the USA are gathering at Richmond Yacht Club in preparation for the International 10 Square Meter Sailing Canoe (IC) World Championship, which begins September 6. The words “sailing canoe” may conjure up images of an outdated craft, and the IC class still competes for the New York Challenge Cup, established in 1885 and the second oldest international sailing trophy in the world after the America’s Cup. However, like the America’s Cup boats, the International Canoe has been transformed into a high tech version of its 19 th century counterpart. Key features of the IC today are its efficient rig, long, slim hull and a curved sliding seat that allows its single-handing skipper to glide fore and aft as well as several feet out to windward from the hull while, as one enthusiast put it, “sailing upwind like a stiletto through butter” -- an exhilarating challenge to the best of sailors. Check out this regatta promo video. A one-design class from 1971 to 2008, the International Canoe officially became a developmental class in 2009, operating under a simple set of rules that define the hull’s allowable length (4900-5200mm) and minimum beam and the boat’s overall minimum weight excluding sails. The total allowable sail area is 10 square meters. The developmental feature of this class makes the upcoming competition particularly exciting since, in addition to the plethora of seasoned competitors, there is no way to accurately predict which new design will prove fastest or function best on San Francisco Bay.
