I can’t emphasize enough the importance of a good attendance at the meeting. The future strength of MYCQ is dependent on the support and shared contributions from all members, whether or not you are serving on a committee or sub- committee. There are exciting times ahead for our club. We are all very much aware of the growing multihull ownership within the yachting fraternity. Our challenge is to offer a diverse range of products (fun experiences) to those owners and crew so that they will be attracted to MYCQ. The more ideas that are floated, the more likely that we will find the right formula to grow. So come to our meetings and contribute! It has been an honour to serve as Commodore of MYCQ again this past year. I am very grateful for the support of so many members during that time, and of course, there have been a few who have served the club with distinction. All committee positions will be declared vacant at the AGM and a new committee elected. I indicate that I will be nominating again for the position of Commodore for the next year, and I will regard it as a sign of strength for the club if there are other nominations for Commodore. We need a strong committee! There are only a three events left on the 2016 calendar, They are the Christmas Party and Trophy Presentation night on the 3rd December followed by a cruise weekend and the Navigator’s Nightmare fun race. The previous two Christmas Parties have been a huge success, so don’t miss out! Plans are well under way for our 2017 and 2018 calendar. There will be something for everyone, cruisers, racers and social butterflies. 3 From the Editor Welcome to another edition of the MYCQ Multinews. This month we have a lot of content from members as well as a lot happening around the world to report on. There is an interesting cruise report from Tropical Cat and her trip up north. There was also the St Helena Cup and the Mooloolaba Weekend this month. An old advertiser has started supporting he MYCQ again. The Redland City Marina has placed a new advert and will also be advertising on our website. Please support our sponsors. This month sees the MYCQ AGM, so it would be good if all members attend and get involved in running the club. Another must attend event is the Christmas Party so I look forward to seeing you all there. Enjoy!

  • Barbara Kendall Boardsailing
    Olympic Education Barbara Kendall Boardsailing It was Christmas Eve 1974, and Barbara, her brother Bruce and her sister Wendy were snuggled down in their bunks on their old yacht Sunlight. While Wendy and Bruce drifted off to sleep, relaxed by the motion of the boat, 7-year-old Barbara waited, listening to the water lapping on the side of the boat and the murmur of her parents’ voices. “Where is he? When will he come?” wondered Barbara, still wide awake. From her bunk, she could only just see the outline of the boat’s mast, where Santa and his reindeer would come at midnight. She was determined to stay awake, but eventually the motion of the boat won and she drifted off to sleep. This kind of determination would drive Barbara all her life. Early years – dancing, sailing and windsurfing Barbara Kendall was born on August 30th 1967, the youngest of three children. Barbara and Bruce were fiercely competitive, while Wendy was the peace-maker. All three siblings loved the sea, and their boating holidays on board Sunlight were the highlight of each summer. Fit and full of energy, they spent their days sailing or mooring in a bay to surf and swim. They picnicked, went on bushwalks, and searched out isolated beaches and sand dunes. One summer, they even discovered a shipwreck. Barbara, Bruce and Wendy at Mercury Islands on a paddle board their father had made for them.

  • 'Flying' Boat 23 May 2015, by Veronique Dupont
    French adventurer seeks Pacific record with 'flying' boat 23 May 2015, by Veronique Dupont shallow waves off the coast of San Pedro, just south of Los Angeles. This is Thebault's first journey in three months on the ship that set a speed sailing record of over 50 knots in 2009, and now he is ready to attempt to best a crossing mark: reaching Hawaii from the City of Angels in under 4.19 days. "We want that record," the fiery and passionate Frenchman said. A key to that goal is to keep the Hydroptere intact. It's broken down four times. "The first challenge is to keep the structure," said Alain Thébault of France, skipper of the "Hydroptère" the sailor. yacht, on a test run in Los Angeles, California on May 20, 2015 "It will work well in flight stability between 20 and 29 knots with three-meter swells," Thebault said. Skimming across the surface of the vast Pacific, Alain Thebault scans the horizon with his blue Breton eyes. He is feeling good. A record is there to be broken. "It's like a magic carpet," Thebault said aboard the cutting-edge "Hydroptere" sailboat, which he hopes to pilot halfway across the Pacific from Los Angeles to Honolulu in record time. Off the California coast under azur-blue skies, Thebault accelerated the hydrofoil supercraft to 30 knots as the 18-meter (60-foot) boat stands on three foils that claw the waves, lifting the hull fully out of the water. Alain Thébault of France stands next to the "Hydroptère" The few passengers cling to the side as they prior to attempting a record crossing from Los Angeles to experience the sensation of flying for a few Hawaii in under 4.19 days moments.
