Well done to two of our youth sailors who crewed on J22's at the recent Northern Region Provincial Championships. Scott Quarmby crewed as foredeck on the winning J22 and Tamsin Gennisen (also doing foredeck) was on the boat that finished third. Well done this is a great achievement in a seriously competitive fleet.

The annual J22 youth regatta, a five day event was held on the 12th June finishing on the 16th.
Well done to our PSC Team helmed by Dawie Doubell and our new PSC members Joeline Tofts, Greg and Neil Barnard who finished in fifth place. Sailing “Jay Walker” jointly owned by Steve Thysse and Rob Watson. Thank you both. This was the first time for all of our team in this prestigious, but hard work event.

The awards dinner went very well with a good attendance. The Dinner was excellent. A big thank you to Elsabie Templeton and her friend Lynette, and staff Margaret, Frans and Peter.

The tables looked beautiful with flower arrangements and settings “Thank You” to Doreen Hughes.

The 2009/2010 sailing season has come to a close; the AGM was held; the old committee thanked for their efforts of the past year; the new committee elected and tasked to address key issues in the new season; the winter off season activities have started in preparation for the new season. Therefore I wish to take this opportunity to thank the past Committee for their support and commitment in making our club one of the most successful dingy clubs in South Africa over the past year. However, I wish to point out that is directly related to the commitment of our members, therefore wish for you to consider the following that was sent to me:

Annually over a hundred sailing dinghy’s gather at Pretoria Sailing Club in January for the Charity Regatta where all profits got to the NSRI. This year saw the greatest turnout in 7 years with 108 boats. This is fantastic considering the last few years of economic meltdown.
The regatta is open to all classes, so there were Finns, Lazers, GP14’s, 505, Mirrors, Oppies, Dabbie, Dolphins, some Enterprises, Gypsies, Flying Dutchmen and the odd fireball. The Mirrors and the GP’s were hosting their Northvaal Provincials.

Saturday 30th and Sunday 31th of January 2010
This prestigious regatta is open to all mono-hull dinghy classes.
The skipper should be a member of a SAS affiliated club.
The FD Highveld, GP14 Northvaal Provincials, The Enterprise GP 3, events will be sailed in conjunction with the charity.
Five or more boats must enter to form a class. Boats not forming a class will form part of the Open Class.
