A depressed young woman was so desperate that she decided to end her life by throwing herself into the ocean. When she went down to the docks, a handsome young sailor noticed her tears, took pity on her, and said, "Look, you've got a lot to live for. I'm off to Europe in the morning, and if you like, I can stow you away on my ship. I'll take good care of you and bring you food every day." Moving closer, he slipped his arm around her shoulder and add- ed, "I'll keep you happy, and you'll keep me happy." The girl nodded 'yes.' After all, what did she have to lose? That night, the sailor brought her aboard and hid her in a life-boat. From then on, every night he brought her three sandwich- es and a piece of fruit, and they made passionate love until dawn. Three weeks later, during a routine inspection, she was discovered by the captain. "What are you doing here?" the Captain asked. "I have an arrangement with one of the sailors," she explained. "We're going to Europe, and he's screwing me." "He sure is, lady," said the Cap- tain. "This is the Rottnest Island Ferry." Nov—Feb 2017 Page 5 From the President hat a way to kick off another year at the helm of the ARYA Wwith a fantastic nationals hosted by NSWRYA & the Kogarah Bay team, who worked tirelessly (with a bit of help from Team WA) to ensure the success of the event. Con- gratulations to the winners, Glenn Dawson (A), Scott Condie (10R), Lincoln McDowall (RM) and Ian Vickers (IOM). Unfortunately we’ve seen the IOM title slip across the ditch for a year to Ian who certainly showed that consistency is the name of the game finishing ahead of Ross Bennett. During the nationals the AGM was held and there were some minor changes to the ARYA Executive Committee with Garry Bromley (Vice President), Scott Condie (Registrar) and John Wainwright (Treasurer) stepping down from their positions. I personally thank Garry, John & Scott for their contribution over the last few years and at the same time welcome Andrew Reid (VIC) to the VP chair, David Turton (QLD) as Registrar and Norm Wallis (SA) as Treasurer to the ARYA Exec. I also thank the ARYA Executive Committee, Class Representatives & appointed members of our sub-committees, all of whom have con- tributed to what has been a successful year but more importantly they have supported both myself and our members volunteering their time to ensure the success of radio sailing in Australia. 2016 saw us represented internationally with participation in IOM, 10R & RM classes at international events worldwide and we see this continuing in 2017. Each and everyone of our sailors competing over- Page 6 Nov—Feb 2017 seas have represented us well ensuring that their best was shown on the world stage. On the local front we’ve held some very successful events across Australia during 2016, and 2017 is shaping up well and we expect strong support of all our regional events. Outside of the nationals, the Eddie Cowell IOM Regatta held on the Sunshine Coast in August is one of our biggest events on the calendar and is growing year on year and for the first time will be a three day event that will attract sailors from across Australia and international- ly, so block off the calendar from August -4 6 and head to the warmer climate of the Sunshine Coast. Next years Nationals will be held at Montrose Bay in Tasmania and for many the opportunity to sail at a new venue will be a key attrac- tion to support of this event. Keep an eye out for more information from the Tassie Team. Good Sailing in 2017! Sean Wallis From the Secretary ongratulations to the NSW Nats regatta committee for hosting a successful regatta Crecently. Congrats also to the winners and all of the competi- tors. It looked like everyone had a good time. Me, I had the soberest regatta that I have ever attended, but I promise never to repeat that again. Nov—Feb 2017 Page 7 The IOM World Championships are coming up in France and the AUS team will be Scott Condie NSW, Andrew Reid Vic, Tim Brown Qld, Kirwan Robb Vic & Dave Turton Qld. In the final wash up of the tiered entry system, AUS would have gained four extra places in round 2, but we didn’t receive any other expressions of interest from our skippers. That is a pity. The ranking window for the Marblehead & Ten Rater World Champi- onships is now very much open. The NSW Nats results count towards these events. Anyone interested in going to these worlds should send an expression of interest to [email protected] . The list is open now.
