Hello to all our members,

The Phuket Yacht Club Event Organising Committee would like to invite all members to an afternoon at the Club with the intention of the more established members getting to know our new members.

Some of our new members own boats and some have sailing experience, some don’t know much about sailing but would like to learn. This is a great opportunity to build relationships between us as we are all members due to our relationship with sailing.

The event is planned on Sunday 04 October at the PYC Restaurant, 14.00hrs.

The Club will supply some finger foods and snacks along with a free member's drink of your choice.

Please make an effort for this event as it is important that we all grow this Club together.

Kind Regards

Mick Kealy Rear Commodore
