VESSEL REGISTER It has come to our attention some members missed the notice and link to complete the form to ensure your updated contact & vessel details were included in the 2020 Register.
It is very important to us to have your vessel in our Register so please contact Joyce if you were one of these unlucky members so we can ensure you will be contacted prior to the next Register being published and included. Reach Joyce via admin@classicyacht.org.nz

NEWS & VIEWS FROM AROUND NEW ZEALAND:
We would love to hear what you are doing in Wellington, Lyttelton and absolutely anywhere there is a classic boat in the water!
Your contributions and ideas would be so welcome - and please do let us know if you are restoring a vessel, planning an event or would just like to share a classic experience with us. We would LOVE to hear from you and share your story
A HUGE THANK YOU AND A WELCOME
With a changing of the guard in the production of Sheerlines, it's time to acknowledge the enormous commitment made for some time by our hard-working CYA Chair, James Mortimer. He took Sheerlines from a basic news bulletin to a classy production. Thank you SO MUCH, James.
We are delighted to announce that as of this edition of Sheerlines we have a new editor – welcome Robyn Pearce, and a big thank you from the committee.
Robyn is an experienced writer and we’re sure you will enjoy her input and management of the newsletters.
(Joyce wrote those kind words, and is the main scribe. My role is primarily to get the newsletter out - I'm just the keyboarder, learning more refinements of email newsletter systems and happy to help in this way. Robyn.)
