For our April Guest Speaker Dinner, we are pleased to bring you Greg Clinnick, who will present his account of last year’s Sydney to Hobart race in which he skippered the RBYC yacht Another Chapter to a 3rd place in their division. Hear about their 15 month journey to get to the start line and then successfully complete the race which experienced gale force winds, fatalities, man over boards, dis-mastings and 30% of the fleet retiring. The presentation will conclude with specific learnings for all sailors, whether they be cruisers or racers. So, another one not to be missed!
Note that this Guest Speaker Dinner will be held on Friday 11th April, a week earlier than the usual 3rd Friday of the month (which this April will be Easter Good Friday).
