/BPYC 2024-2025 SPRING Season gets underway
Dear Members and Friends,
The next race on the BPYC Calendar is Race 1 on Sunday 4th August with the start time of 1200hrs.
At this stage the forecast looks good, NW winds around 10 knots.
Sydney Weather Forecast
Enclosed Waters Forecast
Tides for Fort Denison
Start times for Race 1 are listed below
With this in mind, skippers and crew are reminded that an Australian Sailing number is required to race, so it is the perfect time to ensure you and your crew's BPYC membership is renewed to gain or retain your Australian Sailing number. Note that the club has waived the ‘joining fee’ for new members.
As mentioned in previous correspondence, the Cat 7 or CAT 4 Equipment Audit and Additional BPYC Safety Amendment forms and actual audits must be completed and lodged with the club by the 31st August 2024. They will then be current (valid for 12 months from your previous Audit). Please book your Equipment Audit inspection for the 2024-2025 season. These can be booked by sending an email to bluespointyc@gmail.com or phoning the Commodore..
Your Committee has updated the Sailing Instructions and the BPYC Calendar, both are here on the BPYC website.
Courses for 2024-2025
We have added the Cannae Point course to the options this season as Course 7. follow this link to courses for 2024-2025 to see the full list of courses.
Looking forward to a great 2024-2025 season where I hope to see you on the water and back at the Clubhouse (ie., Blues Point Hotel) after Sunday's race for the prize giving and we can all say hello.
Cheers,
Carl Braden
Commodore
