Firstly, bye-bye CIMARON - now a TD stalled in the S China Sea (graphic below).

Next, up-coming events:

DBYC Middle Island Regatta - 11&12 Nov 06.

Details now posted on the web site here, including the Notice of Race, Entry Form and Sailing Instructions. Entries by Wed, 8 Nov latest. Hope you can make it - should be a good one, arranged along similar lines to the TMR format. Lots of boats, heaps of prizes and a cracking party. Forecast: NE 4-5, sunny 26 degs. Perfect.

Crew needed, as always (reply asap) and MV’s welcome - entry free if assisting with race org. Meantime, here’s a peek at the menu at ABC Middle Island to whet your appetite...

As well as the sizeable group disount we have negotiated, the DBYC will subsidise the event to the tune of $240 per couple - your family membership subs just about returned to you, once again. Use it or lose it! Non-member guests are very welcome, with no limit on numbers per Member, at the non-subsidised, but still well discounted price of $1,000 pp.

Embarking at Ocean Terminal from 1700 hrs, latest 1900 hrs. Return alongside approx. 0800 hrs and disembark latest 1200 hrs on Sat, 2 Dec. Dress: formal. So ladies arrange those special dresses now and gents, get out there and order your DJ with wacky bow-tie and cumberbund / waistcoat.That’s it for now. See you there!
