Chinese New Year - Speedboats & Laisee
As is the tradition, the Club coxswains will be celebrating the first
two days of the CNY holiday with their families, so there won't be any
speedboat service on those days. Also, they will finish a little
earlier on Chinese New Year's eve in order to join their family
celebrations in good time.
So, the speedboat service over CNY will be:
Saturday Feb 13 - normal holiday schedule in the morning. Last pickup
from Tai Tam pier @ 2:15 pm, last ferry from beach @ 3:00 pm.
Sunday Feb 14 - no speedboat service
Monday Feb 15 - no speedboat service
Tuesday Feb 16 - holiday schedule
If you'd like to go for a sail on Feb 14 or 15, please use the steps to
get to the beach and ask Club Secretary Chris for the combination to the
locked box where we keep a key to the clubhouse and sailshed. Please
note there won't be any speedboat safety cover on those days.
Laisee - if you'd like to recognise the coxswain's contribution to the
Club, please feel free to give them a red packet. It will be very much
appreciated by them.

The Club is evaluating our training needs for the year, and would like

Gus Irani Trophy - Sunday Feb 28
An old Club favourite! Race around local islands and marks, and finish
near Po Toi. Enjoy a local seafood meal before setting sail for the
Club. Skippers' briefing at 10:30 with racing to start soon after.
Cheung Chau Challenge - March 13 & 14
A Club vs. Club challenge weekend. The Hobie Club (sailing Hobie 16s)
will take on LBC (sailing Hobie 16s & Dart 18s). Sailors can stay
overnight on Cheung Chau (the Warwick Hotel is right by the sailing
beach) and enjoy a seafood dinner and the Cheung Chau nightlife.
Everyone is welcome to join in the Challenge, so find yourself a boat
and crew and join in this classic event.
