'Peter Haywood Turner 1939-2008
It is with great sadness I have to inform Club Members that Peter Turner sadly passed away at 0200hrs on Wednesday 30th July 2008.
Peter was a staunch member who worked tirelessly for the good of the Club. His friendly manner made him many friends both on the Marina where he was employed as Marina Superintendent or lately as Club House Manager.
Peter was one of lifes Gentlemen, his friendly smile behind the Bar will be greatly missed.

Upgang Survey
Upgang Survey Report
We are pleased to announce that a thorough survey conducted of the Upgang reef approaching low water on Sunday was successful and the findings are said to be in line with those previously published by the Admiralty.
Like any good researcher the area under survey was then re-visited to confirm the data - resulting in the second bump which also confirmed it is very gritty.
Wondered why it took him sooooooooo long on that beat!

Complaint from Harbourmaster
At the latest harbour users meeting, the Harbourmaster stated he has received more than one complaint regarding yachts leaving the harbour & stopping in the middle of the fairway to hoist their sails.
The harbourmaster has asked that all yachts refrain from doing this, if they need to hoist sails in the harbour they should do it in Collier Hope out of the line of the fairway so as not to cause an obstruction.
