CRUISING ASSOCIATION UPDATE

Despite some chilly weather over winter our cruising community has been very active. A number of Club members sailed over to Port Vincent for the June Long Weekend and the common report was that it was very good to clear out the cobwebs and get back out on to the water again. Featured in this edition is also a story of the trials, tribulations and adventures of Take That Too. A number of members have expressed their interest in cruising across to Port Vincent for the October Long Weekend. Don’t forget to book your berth with the Port Vincent Marina Manager, Rob Marner, on 0414 611 110. Our popular cruising 2nd Saturday BYO BBQs will resume on 10 October 2020, albeit with social distancing in mind, so come along and join like-minded members. Given that we currently live in an ever-changing world please keep a lookout for future cruising events and activities via the Club calendar and through the SA Cruisers communication forum. Simply email your request to join to sa_cruisers@googlegroups.com
