29 April - 1 May 2016
First of all, we would like to thank the Philippine Home Boatbuilders Yacht Club (PHBYC) led by Mr. Roy Espiritu for organizing this event alongside Hyde Sails and all other sponsors. This year's event was held at the beach of Megaworld's The Mactan Newtown in Cebu on 29th April 29 - 1st May 2016.
This is the 2nd year that Hyde Sails Cebu Inc. (HSCI) has participated in this fantastic annual event. This year, we were lucky enough to be able to build two Oz Goose boats under the supervision of Michael Storer, the boat's designer.
Five of the participants from last year's event are back this year to help instruct this year's new boat builders. The instructors were Daylyne Noynay, Lucila Loquinario, Marlon Amistad, Elmer Verdida & Elorde Tampus.
Pictured above is the 2016 Hyde Sails boat builders appointed by Hyde Sails Cebu Managing Director Mr.Ian Flanders.
