There will be traditional mince pies and mulled wine in plentiful supply, together with a great chance for a catch-up chat with your sailing friends.
Best wishes all for a great Christmas

A great vote of thanks to Louise Bennett-Jones and Simon Ropert for some really fantastic photography (not forgetting Nigel J-F and the tremendous stuff he took flying his drone).

St. Catherine’s is on to be part of the largest sailing event in the world in a bid to claim the world record. 44 boats have entered, which means we have exceeded the minimum required, so we have appointed an official adjudicator to oversee our race.
We are the most southerly club in the British Isles to be taking part, Barts Bash has even attracted Vendée Globe sailor, Phil Sharp, to vist his home island to race alongside the St. Cath’s crew this Sunday. You can still register online, the more the better so do it now. Race starts at 11, breifing at 10.
Don’t forget if you have registered already then please make a donation to the Andrew Simpson Sailing Foundation, which transforms the lives of young people through sailing.
Catherine Moisan and the house committee will be putting on a ploughman’s lunch and profiteroles, all the proceeds of which will be donated to the foundation.
Lunch will be served after sailing from about 1pm, so if you can’t sail then please do join us for lunch and contribute to this great cause.
Bart’s Bash event pack arrived today, the biggest sailing race in the world. Are you going to be sailing at SCSC on Sunday? Sign up now!
Iain Percy has said that he will personally pay to fly 2 people out to San Fransisco for a 3 night, 4 day trip including £500 spending money and a trip to look around Artemis Racing and have a sail on an AC45, all in honour of Barts Bash reaching our 5000th signed up sailor!! BOOM!! We got your attention now?? 
The deadline for entries for the UBS Jersey Regatta has been extended to Monday 1 September, the NoR, SI’s & Entry forms can be downloaded from the regatta website.
