Remember that logs can float both horizontally along the surface as well as vertically almost below the surface, and colliding with one of these can cause damage and/or injury.

You may have noticed that our web site was inaccessible over the weekend.
This was because our domain name GEORGIANYACHTCLUB.COM expired because the reseller who holds the domain failed to invoice us.
It was renewed for two years and came back up around 15h00 yesterday (2018-07-08). Hopefully we will get timely invoices in the future.
This year our SailPast event was captured on video by a flying drone which was piloted by Brett Duncan. On behalf of the Board and all of the Membership, I would like to extend our sincerest gratitude and appreciation to him for his spectacular efforts in providing this video.

At the recent Meet & Greet a new member suggested displaying members’ bios.
Our web site has always had the capability of storing members’ biographical info. It is a standard part of your profile. A few of you have listed your boating experience and positions held in the Georgian Yacht Club.
Until now that information only appeared as a foot note to a member’s news post. Since few of you make posts, no one saw what you had written
Now I have added Biographical Info to the pop-up that appears when you click on a member’s name anywhere in the Directory.
You can add your own bio. by logging on and visiting Edit My Profile.
