Elliot 6 South Island Interclub Regatta
3 days ... 36 races and the winner from the total fleet was only decided on the last race. Congratulations to the Nelson Yacht Club, the 2108 winners. It was a great weekend with beautiful light to moderate conditions. The competitors left very happy and thanked Naval Point on a fantastic event.

NPCL Member Forum
14th November 2018
The next Member’s Forum is planned for 14th November, after the Twilight Race that evening. This will provide the opportunity for a significant number of members to participate without having to make a special trip to the Club.
We will provide an update on a variety of matters such as the Naval Point Development etc.
The Member’s Forum is intended to be a 2 way process and we would ask that members submit agenda items by 24th October as outlined in the constitution.
I hope that as many members as possible take the opportunity to participate.

Dredging
Just a reminder that we still need to keep clear of the three vessels and the waste water dredging barge, which is carrying out these works, as it has limited visibility of small craft and limited ability to manoeuvre.
We must keep clear abeam and astern of the ship and 550m clear ahead. The ship dredges at about 2 knots but can accelerate to 14 knots when it leaves the harbour. We should keep well clear if we are on the harbour at night.
Please check the club noticeboard for information before racing.
