Calendar Side Panel
WebsiteThe Calendar side panel is now working properly apart from on the Home Page. Due to the way the software "builds" the Home Page, using the calendar navigation arrows or drop downs to move between months causes the News page to load instead of the Home Page. A new version of the software is due to be released shortly; whether it will resolve this particular irritant remains to be seen.

Club noticeboard 12 July 2008Like a barren desert bursting into stunning flower following a once in a lifetime downpour of rain, the club's social noticeboard in the rotunda has recently been transformed into a blaze of colour. It's all thanks to Amanda, whose artistry when it comes to producing eye-Club noticeboard 12 July 2008catching flyers for forthcoming social events clearly knows no bounds. My vote for notice of the year (so far) goes to the garland-of-paper-flowers-decorated poster for Sea Week's Caribbean Party Night (Wednesday 13th August; complete with Steel Band). If the Party itself is going to be half as good as the poster, I'd advise getting your tickets now!

RB Offshore Powerboat Race 2008
Ocean Pirate leaving LowestoftRNSYC member Mike Barlow's determination received appropriate recognition at the Round Britain Offshore Powerboat Race 2008 prize-giving with the award of the Brand-Crombie Family Perpetual Trophy for Outstanding Effort. Mile Barlow is presented with his awardCompeting in the "Historic" class in the Brooke Marine-built Ocean Pirate, the only boat in the fleet also to have competed in the first RBO Powerboat Race in 1969, Mike's race got off to the worst possible start at Portsmouth when the boat hit an underwater obstruction and suffered damage to her props. This necessitated driving the props to St Neot’s, Cambridgeshire for repair, after which Ocean Pirate set off for Plymouth and the next stage of the race, eventually getting back on schedule several stages later on arrival in Oban. The story of Ocean Pirate’s preparations, and details of the race itself, can be found at:

Last weekend was Assurmada Weekend at the RNSYC, with 21 Dutch yachts making the crossing from the Netherlands, the 11th year of this always much anticipated and thoroughly enjoyable event.The miserable weather at the start clearly didn't dampen Dutch spirits, as the Article by RNSYC member Iain Brockie, who helps arrange the weekend programme on this side of the North Sea, testifies. To read Iain's account, click on the link below. There's also a Press Release and if your Dutch is good there's more on the Assurmada website, including a Photo Gallery.
