The grounds are looking good with the spring greenery, and I would like to commend Walter and the Building and Grounds Committee for the work that they have put into cleaning up the waterfront. It is nice to be able to see the lake without all the scrub and brush in the way. Spring Regatta was a success though there were a few green crews out there.

  • Telltales 08 JUNE.Pub
    VOLUME 27: NUMBER 6: June 2008 COMMODORE’S REPORT by Nick Hodson The Round Salt Spring race this year was again a great success. We were blessed with great weather all weekend. I would like to express my thanks to all who volunteered over the weekend, for the many months before, and in particular to David Wood for taking the lead in the organization. There were a number of new ideas, all of which were well received. Unfortunately, as I informed you all by email, Chris Pattinson passed away recently. Dick and Chris have been very active members for many years, and she will be truly missed. I am sure you will join me in expressing our condolences to Dick. At the recent General Meeting we discussed increasing the cost to members for dinghy storage. Our Treasurer, Karl Mech, will develop some figures to estimate the cost of maintaining and replacing our dinghy docks over the long term. We will present our proposals to the membership at the next General Meeting on September 30th. Vicky and I are intending to make more use of our boat over the summer, so if you cannot contact me by phone, please use the email address provided and I will respond when I can. I hope you all have a great summer out on the water and wish you fair winds and smooth sailing.

    October 2019 On Sunday 8th September the wind was blowing from the northwest at 20-25 knots and predicted to peak at 28 knots. It can become quite choppy off Whangaparaoa Peninsular. Before we left the marina, at my request, the crew all put on lifejackets (PFD), we had the No2 headsail on the foredeck and made preparations to put a reef in the main when hoisting. On the way out, as required in the Sailing Instructions, we called up Race Control FROM THE QUARTERDECK (Olympus) on Channel 77 and report we were racing and to advise we had seven A Report from POB on board.
