BSC Cruiser & BBC Dinner

On Saturday evening nearly 60 cruiser members gathered for a wonderful dinner at the club house

For many this was their first time back at BSC since Covid struck and it was wonderful to hear the room buzzing with conversation between old and new friends.

The food was up to its usual high standards and Kathrine and her team made sure everyone was well looked after.

A few prizes were awarded but most notably Tom de Trafford received the Riesco Salver for being the fastest Bosham boat to take part in the Round the Island Race - he came an impressive 28th out of nearly 1000 boats.
