THIRTY - THREE
What a fabulous Commodore's Sail Past last Saturday - undoubtedly one of the best on record. We lost count of the number of boats that turned out in the blazing heat, as many skippers and crew sweltered under their pirate costumes - but all the boats decked with colourful flags looked spectacular.
The day concluded with a great BBQ in the club, fabulous music from Kevin Ticehurst and Charlie Fowler as David Bowie performing The Thin White Duke's greatest hits to a full house.
