Peter Dawson, RMYS General Manager will officially welcome the Multihull fraternity to the club and explain the new marine they’re developing and the great opportunities that have arisen for Multihull owners.

Where: Royal Melbourne Yacht Squadron.
Pier Rd St. Kilda.

Date: 17th May 2011.
Time: 7.30pm
Guest Speaker: Terry Jones

Terry Jones is the Victorian Sales manager for Seawind Catamarans and an experienced yachtsman with many sea miles under this boat.
Last year Seawind Catamarans took over Corsair Marine the builder of the famous Chilli (current AVW winner) and Frassld (current National Champion)
It will be interesting to hear the outcome of this and their future direction.

Mark Stafford’s new boat arrives this month from Melvest marine and will give a us a brief on this new boat adventures. Apparently it will sail faster than it took to build. I received this short email from Mark. Well, the gestation period is coming to a close. With the help of Dr.Tony Considine and his crew my baby will be arriving at (we think) 10am to be placed on the ground. Either the tractor or the 4x4 will be used to extract my baby and show her the Australian sunshine for the first time. One very excited father to be, good luck with the birth.

This is a great opportunity to catch up and have a look around one of Melbourne’s oldest yacht clubs. Get back to me about meals and feel free to bring a

friend. Remember everyone get registered on the MYCV Blog and receive regular updates. http://mycv-news.blogspot.com/
