A social evening for members of the above club sections celebrating the end of the sailing season.
Event wording:
Our Annual Cruising and Classic Boat Section’s Laying Up Supper is always a great way to finish the cruising and yachting year.
We have chosen a wonderful menu for you all to enjoy, and we will be showing a Cruising Season video of our 2025 cruises during the meal.
We will also be having the Cruising Section Awards Presentation for the various awards achieved by our members, including the 2025 Most Cruised Award and the 2025 Achievement Award. There will also be one or two fun awards to bring a smile to our faces.
This promises to be a wonderful, fun evening and it would be really great if you could all put this date in your diaries and have a full attendance. We always have a superb time meeting up with friends, old and new and relaxing with others, whether catching up, talking about the coming cruising plans or just swapping tales of past adventures, it’s always a good evening.

Beaujolais Night 2025

Entrée

Terrine de Jarret de Porc

Slow-cooked ham hock, hand-pressed into a rustic terrine, served with a tangy seasonal chutney and crisp golden crouton for a perfect balance of savoury, sweet, and crunch. ( Gf without the crouton)

Plat Principal

Bœuf Bourguignon

A French classic: tender pieces of beef slowly braised in Burgundy red wine, enriched with smoky bacon, carrots, onions, and mushrooms. A rich, melt-in-the-mouth dish that captures the warmth and soul of Burgundian tradition. Gf

Ratatouille Niçoise

A Provençal medley of slow-cooked vegetables ragu — aubergine, courgette, peppers, and tomatoes topped with warm goat cheese— infused with olive oil and fresh herbs. Light yet full of flavour, balancing wonderfully with the vibrant notes of Beaujolais. Gf

Both mains served with Gratin Dauphinoise potato and French trimmed green beans. Gf

BonBons

Éclair au Chocolat

A classic French pastry — light choux filled with Chantilly cream, finished with a glossy dark chocolate glaze. Elegant, indulgent, and timeless. Not Gf

Crème Brûlée

A timeless French dessert of silky smooth vanilla custard, topped with a thin layer of caramelised sugar, crackling beneath the spoon, served with an Apricot and vanilla compote. Elegant, simple, and irresistible.

Monthly Get-Togethers
2025-12-08 12:00 - 15:00
The Joint Monday Lunches enjoyed by the Cruising and Classic Boat Section members,but open to all club members.
Some background information:
We started these lunches as a result from some of our older members at our 2021 Classic Boat Section AGM.
A lot our members are reluctant at times to visit the club due to sometimes not knowing the members who are in the bar lounge at the time of their visit or they have lost their partners and friends in life and are now feeling rather lonely. These members once owned yachts and enjoyed the company of club friends during their younger club days. These friendships have been enjoyed over the years, but time passes and circumstances have changed. Travelling at night can also be a problem for some not wanting to drive in the dark and some have suffered with the new LED lights on newer vehicles that tend to be so bright and very dazzling when driving.
As a result, I decided with our committee to start these Get-Togethers once a month on each second Monday per month. Having run them now for 22 months these last two years they have been very successful, and our members look forward to them.
Please can you advertise these lunches on the club website each month and also have a slot on the rolling TV screens in the club house.
I also check with the office staff each month to make sure that the Skylight Lounge is free,
Mondays being a fairly light day for any hire. These lunches start around 12 noon and last for up to two and a half hours.
Many thanks
