The 2011 Annual General Meeting will be held on 3rd October at UTMYC, starting at 8.00 p.m. The Agenda and supporting papers have been sent to Members.

Following the recent presentation by the RNLI, the committee has decided to pick up the challenge of raising funds in support of the Cowes inshore lifeboat station appeal. Please bring along your  ideas for discussion under agenda item 7.

Following the last couple of AGMs several of you have made brief photographic presentations on various topics of  interest. These have proved very popular and you are invited to bring along your stories once again. I would suggest no more than 4 or 5 photos and five minutes chat. Topics could include interesting places or  experiences, technical topics, embarrassing moments - anything you like to  entertain or inform your fellow sailors.
