The annual RBYC Frostbite Cruise will take place this coming weekend of July 26th and 27th, destination Melbourne City Marina (MCM), Docklands. Join in, come along, and enjoy a convivial weekend away with sailing colleagues. This year, we are adding a “Christmas in July” theme and suggest each boat brings along +/- $10 Kris Kringle (Op Shop or food). All boats/ crews welcome to come along and participate. We have provisionally reserved up to nine berths, but each boat should book directly with MCM – let them know that you are with the RBYC group. Also, please let Jo Walker ([email protected]) know if you plan to participate and / or have any queries.
