Dear Members,

 

As we come to the end of another year at the National Yacht Club, we want to say how grateful we are for all the wonderful moments we’ve shared. It has been a busy and enjoyable year, filled with events that were made truly special by your support and presence.

 

Our staff have loved meeting you, catching up with you, and looking after you throughout the seasons.

 

As our events continue to grow in size and popularity, the staff have embraced the challenge with kindness, enthusiasm, and great care—upholding the welcoming atmosphere and high standards that make our Club feel like home.

 

Each year, the Staff Christmas Fund and Noah’s Ark Fund offer a chance to show appreciation for the hard work and dedication of our staff.

 

A collection box will be placed in the bar, and an online form is also available below for anyone who prefers to contribute that way.

All contributions are shared among the staff as a Christmas bonus, and they are always deeply appreciated.

 

Thank you sincerely for your support throughout 2025.

From All the staff at the National Yacht Club 

 

With kind regards,

Quiz Update

Quiz Update

The quiz resumed on Wednesday night last (19th November) in conditions that were frosty and unwelcoming. Inside the club the conditions were just frosty - at least for former champions Celtic Boys who had an appeal to popular acclaim roundly dismissed when they argued that all plants are trees. The quiz hierarchy could not stretch the conventions of quizzing to give them the point they would need to fend off the inevitable march to victory of other former champions Wizard. The Quizmaster will not be on Christy McDonnell’s Christmas card list – nor will Michael or Sara.

 

With Wizard beating Celtic Boys by a point, it was left to much improved Quiztopher Columbus to take third spot on the night. Reigning champions Corner Boys finished fourth, and honourable mentions go to Celtic Warriors and the returning Stars of the Sea. Another honourable mention must go to Harmerang because they asked for one!

 

Erstwhile champions Wizard take a commanding lead in the overall leaderboard (available on the club Noticeboard), but with discards still widely available there are opportunities for all teams to improve their positions.

 

Finally, although Martin McCarthy must remain nameless, it should be noted that Motor Buoys  - note the name of the team! – were not able to answer the question that called for the correct spelling of ‘buoy’.

 

The next quiz will take place on December 3rd, at 8pm sharp!
