Our volunteer team arrived early to set up the boats, arrange the life-jackets, registration table, cups of tea and coffee, and collect Charlie’s Chariot from the mooring.
Today’s team was:
Sailing Coordinator, Time Keeper: Brian. Boat Operations Manager: David G.
Support Boat Driver: Warwick. Registrar: Helen
Life Jacket Coordinator: Wilma Observer: Corey
Photographer: Ken Pontoon Manager: Malcolm
Deckhands: Philip, Jim, Alison, Jae, Tory. Sailors: Ivan, John, David W, Col, Michael, Steve.
Participants who experienced and enjoyed the perfect Winter’s Day were: Elias, John, Paul, Jimmy, from St Ives; Ania, Charley, Stephen, Shelley, Allyssa from Pymble; Izzabel, Isaak, and Liam from Royal Far West School; and Lachlan, Dax, Jayden, Samuel, Riley, Talon, Heath, James, Soraya, Oliver from DY School Special Class.
Thanks so much to the helpers this morning, everyone had a most enjoyable day, Liam, Alyssa, Ania simply enjoying the sunshine and relaxed atmosphere up on the deck, John, Charley and Stephen had a Support Boat ride, and the rest had a fabulous sail in the perfect 6 to 18 knot westerly conditions.
We noticed that some of the DY children are competently steering the boats around the bay and arriving back at the pontoon with a flourish, while others are sitting in the boats and enjoying the rhythm of the water, the fresh air, and the wonderful aquatic atmosphere.
