Some good news: the Ross780’s will be joining us for their ‘nationals’. We look forward to working with them in the Bay to make this ‘their best yet’. With an increase in divisions, we will be reinstating the Inner Course.
It’s not too early to start thinking about accommodation – marinas – crew.
If you are looking for crew or you are crew looking for a boat; list on the appropriate heading under Race Info on the website. Or click on the wanted photo.
We have a new committee member; Manuela Gmuer-Hornell. Manuela will be using her skills on the computer – Facebook – Twitter – along with new software etc.
Annette Jones has stepped down from the committee but will still be with Craig Jones in the Results Hut - thank you Annette for your work on the committee over the past three years. You will be missed.
Suggestions and comments are always appreciated Bay of Islands Sailing Week Committee - Ray Haslar, Andrew Riddell, David Hope-Lewis, Lesley Haslar, Allen Jones, John Grant, Manuela Gmuer-Hornell and our Event Coordinator, Melanie McDiarmid
