Just wanted to let you guys know as it's now been announced I am on board MAPFRE for the next Volvo ocean race starting in October! We will also be stopping in Melbourne just after Xmas so hopefully the mornington Yacht club will go for the red boat haha! 
We compete in the fastnet next week then do leg zero and prepare for the race ! 
Hope all is well 
Thanks
Sophie

The Good Old Days - Collings Family

25/7/2017

 
 From Vanessa Collings (maiden name Dawson)
Thought the club might like these photos. I recently found the negatives and had them digitised.
The back story is that it turns out that my Dad,  Geoffrey Dawson who was a member of MYC for a few years in his early 20s (1950 – 53ish) and co-owned a heavy weight sharpie with two others. I believe he bought it from Kevin Willey. Dad’s observation was that there was no life-jackets required in those days, so it was best to know how to swim!
​**
All the Collings Family grew up to be champion sailors  on the Mornington Peninsula and you will find Glenn Collings name on the World Champion Board in the Harbour View Room.

Sailability Storage Shed

20/7/2017

 
​Last season, you would have heard me or Noel refer to a project where we wanted to clad our storage area in polycarbonate sheeting, in order to stop the entry of dirt and rubbish, and in doing so, better protect the array of equipment we have stored in there. Well thanks to Harvey and his team of willing helpers (Bill, Brian Fraser, and Andrew Jones), the job is now complete. Have a look at the couple of photos attached, and I am sure you will see what a great improvement we have. Internally, the area has also been re-arranged, and thoroughly cleaned.
 
Harvey deserves a medal for all of the hours he has put into the project....
planning, purchasing materials, doing all the site prep etc. A champion effort. Our thanks must also go to Bill, Brian and Andrew, and to Bunnings who were kind enough to donate the timber required for the job. The remainder of the materials were purchased through Sailability funds.
 
We can now all look forward to opening those gates whenever we start a program day, and marvelling at how clean the area is, and how good it looks to the passer by.
 
Regards,
Graeme Lyell

2018 Australian Yachting Championship heads to Sandringham next January

17/7/2017

 
​Australia’s premier keelboat event, the Australian Yachting Championship returns to Victoria next year and will be hosted by Sandringham Yacht Club from Friday 19 to Sunday 21 January 2018.
Racing will be held across four keelboat divisions and one Multihull division with up to eight races for keelboats and four races for Multihulls across the three days.  Held in the waters of Port Phillip adjacent to Sandringham Yacht Club, the Australian Yachting Championship will be a combination of windward / leeward and passage racing.
The Australian Yachting Championship is one of the sailing calendar’s most prestigious events and since inception in 2000, the winners list has included such yachting icons as Marcus Blackmore, Rod Jones, Stephen Ainsworth, Peter Sorensen, Bob Steel and Matt Allen.
At the 2017 hosting of the Championship, Karl Kwok’s Team Beau Geste took out the title for the fourth consecutive time, following success at Newcastle in 2014, back-to-back wins at Hamilton Island in 2015 and 2016, and again at CYCA in 2017.  It is a record that will remain unbeaten for many years to come in this Championship and is an outstanding achievement.
Australian Sailing President Matt Allen, winner of the 2004 edition of the regatta (previously known as the IRC Australian Championship) and runner-up to Karl Kwok in 2015 and 2016 said, “I’ve always enjoyed the competition in the Australian Yachting Championship and to have it return to Victoria next January will provide great conditions for crews across all divisions.
“Sandringham Yacht Club always roll out the welcome mat and ensures everyone is well looked after, they’ll provide the best in racing courses, plenty of variety and off-the-water there will be lots of opportunities to catch up with friends, old and new”, Matt said.
Berthing for interstate competing boats can be made available by Sandringham Yacht Club from Thursday 18 January to Monday 22 January at no charge, with prior arrangement.
Rob Davis, Commodore of Sandringham Yacht Club said planning is well underway, “We are always keen to host national titles and we are very excited to have the Australian Yachting Championship at the Club next year.
“January is always a great time for racing in Victoria and we encourage owners and crews to make plans to join us.  With the Festival of Sails returning to the Australia Day weekend, the timing of the Australian Yachting Championship allows crews plenty of time on the water at these two prestigious events”, Rob added.
North Sails has been confirmed as the Official Sailmaker of the 2018 Australian Yachting Championship.
The Australian Yachting Championship will also be held in conjunction with the 2018 Sandringham Yacht Club Regatta, which will include various other handicap series.
Entries are now open for the Australian Yachting Championship and may be submitted here
