Thank you to all of our wonderful members and friends that joined SYC to celebrate the 2026/27 sailing season Opening Day and Blessing of the Fleet.
The morning began with a social morning tea with some lovely pastries provided by Maria from The Deck Bar Shorncliffe. Those attending gathered around the boats on the rigging lawn to be welcomed by Commodore Chris who introduced Chaplain David Taylor to lead the homily and blessing. Vessels performed a sail past which included representatives from Brownsea Water Activities Centre. The day was completed with a social lunch.
The first event of the season will be the first races of the Summer Series, a performance handicap event, on 13 September.
