Pat Lawless Sailing Supper & Revival of Cruising Group
Dear Fellow Members,
The club is blessed with quite a few members who derive as much pleasure from sailing their yacht from one port to another as they might do from purely racing them. There are a few who undertake quite extended cruising, quietly, without fanfare, relying purely on their own resources.
There was in the past a âCruising Groupâ within the club which, amongst other things, used to arrange National Yacht Club rallies. I remember these as a lot of fun.
The Commodore has asked me to âtest the watersâ as it were, to see if there is sufficient interest within the club to revive this group, with the aim of sharing ideas, daring tales of cruises, and perhaps even arranging another NYC cruising rally.

Bridge News
The NYC bridge group returns to its regular (Thursday) schedule on 14th September. Bridge games were held on Tuesdays during the summer while Thursday racing took place.
The final Tuesday bridge game was held on Tuesday 5th September and this was a special occasion because it marked the first anniversary of long-term convenor and organiser of the bridge group, Ida Kiernan who also was a former Commodore of the club.
Bridge was followed by dinner during which Idaâs hard work and achievements were recalled and celebrated and we were joined by members from other waterfront clubs for the bridge game and the dinner.
Thursday night bridge resumes at 7.30pm on 14th September and on every Thursday during the winter. In order that play commences on time, players are requested to arrive early and in time to be seated not later than 7.25pm.
Quiz Night Returns on October 18th next
The ever-popular National Yacht Club table quiz resumes on October 18th next.
