MPYC and Australian Sailing celebrate “National Volunteer Week” and we thank all our dedicated volunteers that make our club work as that is all we have no paid staff just a group of great volunteers..
The timber we require to finish the jetty and repair the broken pole have been delivered to the club and are stored in the boat shed awaiting a low tide where we can have a working bee and install the new poles and replace the broken one.
With little wind in the morning the trainees sailors did theory only this morning.
In the afternoon a nice steady SSE breeze allowed great sailing in Pennants 15 & 16.
