  • Fourth Quarter 2012 from the Editor As Many of You Have Heard, Travis
    Fourth Quarter 2012 From the Editor As many of you have heard, Travis purchased a brand new boat. Not a good used boat, but a boat straight off the line. The boat, a Catalina 315, was christened "Kestrel" last month by one of the officers in the 60th Force Support Squadron. It replaces the much aged and badly damage 30 foot "Warrior". I have had the opportunity to sail her once. Because the boat is brand new, the Marina is going to be a bit more touchy about who sails her. Sailing "Kestrel" requires a checkout. Being checked out on "Warrior" does not qualify. "Kestrel" is very different. For Volunteer Skipper sails, normally two checked out crew members will be required. For the time being, classes will still be held on the old 27 foot boats. Students will then need to sail a few times with checked out skippers before advancing to getting checked out themselves. This is not a hazing program; this is designed to preserve a brand new asset. The biggest news this last quarter and the beginning of this one? The America's Cup. For two weeks, the medium size boats have been ripping across the waters of the bay. (I say "medium" because next year they will bring the "big" boats.) Some of our club members have participated by working the course. Some have been spectating from shore. Some of us have been watching from boats on the water. And some of use just watch it on television. No doubt these races are very different from America's Cup races in the past.

  • The Club That “Went to Sleep”
    Chapter 2 THE CLUB THAT “WENT TO SLEEP” From what has been related in the first chapter it is clearly evident that the Geelong Yacht Club was at a very low ebb in 1869 and from that time until 1880 there is no evidence to show that a Yacht Club was in existence in Geelong. On the other hand there is strong evidence to suggest that the Geelong yachtsmen of the day continued to indulge in their favourite sport by participating in Geelong regattas and also taking part in manoeuvres and sailing matches conducted by the Port Phillip Yacht Club, later to be known as the Victoria Yacht Club and now known as the Royal Yacht Club of Victoria. But, as the purpose of this volume is to not only record the history of the Royal Geelong Yacht Club but also to record the history of sailing on Corio Bay it is perhaps appropriate to relate something of the aquatic events which took place during the period 1870-1880. The 1870 Geelong Regatta was obviously a very gay affair but, once again, we see a very small entry in the main event, the Yacht Race. However, in contrast to the previous year, there was a very good attendance. So it would seem that the criticism levelled by the Geelong Advertiser reporter in 1869, when the drapers refused to close their doors, had been heeded. It is also interesting to note that Captain Nicholson, the last-named Commodore of the Geelong Yacht Club, was the judge and Mr. Farrell, the G.Y.C.
