Goolugatup Second Edition - Coming soon!

Goolugatup Second Edition - Coming soon!
Closing Day & AFL Grand Final Celebrations + Randell volunteer thank you

A bright sunny morning greeted the fleet for the 10am start gun. A radio call alerted the skippers to Bernie handing over a quiz to be completed on course. An advantage for boats with visitors onboard, multi tasking to the max for navigators onboard alone to pick up clues passed on the previous leg. Congratulations Tina and Brian Smith on Indiana for equal top marks with team Purrfect and guests. Back to the actual event: Congratulations with a score of 4 to Team Thanet to win least points for the last non-consistency event.
Power Section Prize night dinner is Saturday night the 9th October. Book your tickets now!

AFL Final & Wilson Marine Sweepstakes.

Members started to select top viewing positions in front of the big screens to catch the history making AFL grand final played in Perth. Unusual that no WA teams made the final, however support for the 2 Victorian based teams was solid. Power Section Sponsor, Chris Pearson from Wilson Marine, assisted by his wife Toby had the sweepstakes categories for $5 a bets, winner wins the kitty stakes. Congratulations Stottie for half time margin guess and Vanessa for first goal kicker win.

With the game one sided, members and guests mingled and chatted then headed out to the jetties to kick on afterwards.

Thank you to the fantastic volunteers from Power Section who helped to ensure yesterday’s breakfast for Randell Rally attendees was such a great success. Compliments about the Club hospitality from visitors is still coming in example
