Hunter Cup – Dennis Hunter Memorial
The race this Sunday at 16.30 is the Hunter Cup Mr Phil Hunter would like to have this occasion to remember his father Dennis and for us to sail in his memory. Mr Hunter will accompany the race officers on the Committee Boat as a guest of the club for the race.
After the race Mr Hunter will present the winner with the Hunter Cup and a Firkin of Ale – as this was one one of our traditions. The winner is then urged to share the ale with his fellow sailors of the day. This should then become an annual event with this special prize giving ceremony all in memory of Dennis Hunter.
I would like to see as many members as possible sail on the day and stay after for the Prize giving – there will be prizes to third place overall.
