Raising the flagstaff

After Winter maintenance identified some major defects in the top part of the flagstaff. The substantial repairs have been completed and the pole re-erected in time for Bass Week much to the relief of our vice commodore, and he expresses his personal thanks to Scumper and Alan Smith for all their efforts in organising its repair and reinstatement.

Congratulations!

Many congratulations to vice commodore Stephen Kirkpatrick and his wife Claire following the birth of their daughter Georgina Elizabeth,  a sister for Henry and Thomas, who weighed in at 7lb11oz on Tuesday evening. Mother and baby doing well.

Well done to Emily for guessing it would be a girl called Elizabeth!

Timeless!

Here’s a pic of the Lawson family from Bass Week over 40 years ago!

Some things never change – Jack, Carol and David look just the same, while Pete is half naked – as usual!

 

 

RIB is Named

The wheels of bureaucracy may turn slowly, but we get there in the end! Our RIB (newest rescue boat) has been adorned with a formal name plate ‘Gerald’ in memory of former Commodore Gerald Powell, father of Emma Smith , who passed away a couple of years ago.
