Last weekend 10 of our cruisers, with 24 club members aboard, sailed to the River Yealm for the first get-together of the season.
Here are some of the boats that took part:
The event was organised by Alison Coombs, our Cruising Officer and had been intended to include separate groups being allocated to eat dinner aboard one of the four “host yachts”. However, seeing Julian Smith’s wonderful catamaran Lilly’s obvious potential, this was nominated as our “party boat” and the food was brought here for everyone to share together!
There was a great selection of dishes and it was lovely to share them in the open air on Lilly’s huge deck space.
Next day we took a walk through the nearby bluebell woods ashore.

Finally, after lunch on Sunday, it was time to head back home as all agreed what an enjoyable weekend we had spent together. Many thanks to Alison for making this all happen!
