Hello fellow members. I witnessed on Saturday a perfect example of what our club is all about. What I saw was all the VX ONE’s in the water with a lot of youth sailors and coaches getting changed to go out. I do not recall ever seeing the VX Ones in the water before 1pm […]
As another summer sailing season nears its end, it was pleasing to see that keelboat participation remained consistent with last year, particularly on Wednesdays in the Twilight races. The season-ending Cerberus Trophy was raced last week with 14 boats participating. Participation in club-organised racing is constantly discussed in both Sailing and General committees. Several new […]
On 13th May the builders come on site to start work on the forecourt redevelopment. This will cause some disruption for 16 weeks, but we are doing everything we can to minimise the impact to members and patrons of the club’s facilities. A reminder that the forecourt redevelopment is the next stage of the Club’s […]
As summer comes to a close, I reflect on the terrific sailing opportunities we have had this season. In my case, I had the good fortune to be part the Another Chapter team at Port Lincoln Race week. As a first time participant I was really impressed with all aspects of this regatta including the […]

On the field: in this week’s Thursday night clash, Richmond hit back hard versus Carlton (as expected) after their first half-capitulation last week against the Suns. The game was close all night with ten lead changes. The Blues had a slightly better final quarter to emerge with a five-point win. On Friday night, the Sydney […]
From the 9th-11th of March, four RBYC junior sailors: Eddie Barron, Jenson Oldham, Oliver Martin, and I (Nathan Stanford) participated in the 29er state championships at the Sorento Sailing Couta Boat club. For all of us, this was our first time sailing a 29er regatta and it was such an amazing experience. On the first […]
RBYC links us with the sea – we sail, we swim, we see the glory of the water. I have spent the last three weeks sailing from RBYC to southern Tasmania and back. This is a different experience from sailing in The Bay, although many of the same skills are needed. For me, the added […]
