Yacht Club Rendevous

The Royal Marsh Harbour Yacht Club held a rendevous to Guana Cay. It was a beautiful weekend and seventeen boats made the two hour trek north from Boat Harbour Marina in Marsh Harbour north to Guana Cay. A committee of club members arranged for discounted slips, a welcoming cocktail party and planned a host of activities for everyone attending.
Fun was had by all. Guana Cay is most noted for the beachside bar Nippers but on this particular day, Johnny, Nippers owner, was hosting the grand opening of Nippers in Las Vegas so he couldn't attend our local function.
It is interesting to see how a group of cruisers can arrange for a good time. After a tremendous brunch there were beach activities including a water balloon toss (last one to break wins) and a butt bowling contest which was new to most folks. You will have to ask Carolyn to tell you more about this one .... she won the contest ! After two days of fun and frolic everyone was dispersing to various sites before returning to "home port" to get ready for the Commodore's Ball which will be held on the 17th of February.
Our social events this year have been focused around the yacht club members and it has been a most enjoyable time.
Here is a picture taken at the beach, just so you can appreciate what a great day it was for a get together! Posted by Picasa
