Changes to Sunday on the Deck
A meeting of the Providore’s sub committee was held recently.
Suggestions from that meeting were tabled at last week's management meeting and the following changes were ratified.
These changes have been made in consideration of the fantastic volunteers that give up their Sunday to serve us a lovely lunch while we enjoy the wonderful view from our club’s deck.
We will now be offering three choices when it comes to burgers on Sunday. The burger choices will now include our already firm favourite, beef, and in addition, a Flame Grilled Chicken Breast as well as a Sweet Potato and Lentil Vegetarian Burger will now be available.
We will also have for sale a Sunday Special if there has been food carried over from Friday night.
Cut off time for lunch orders will be 1.30pm so that the kitchen can be cleaned and volunteers gone by about 2pm. If members are involved in water activities, they should order before going out so that their lunch is ready for them upon return.
There will be a slight price increase for our burgers. They will now be $8.00 which is still excellent value for money.

Tingira Boat Club Sailing

Sunday’s weather
was perfect for the
practical session out
on the water.
Tingira BoatSafe Course Held on Sunday
A BoatSafe training course was held at Tingira last Sunday 23 September.
The course was conducted by two instructors (Colin and Reece) from Bayside
Boat Licensing. Both are Queensland Transport BoatSafe endorsed instructors.
It was an early start for those attending the course in order to make the best of
the early morning high tide. The course consisted of a theory session held
indoors, covering a wide range of boating topics and a practical session
conducted out on the water. The weather was perfect for the practical session
which had the participants enjoying a trip out on the bay in bright sunshine and
calm seas - perfect!
The course was completed by early afternoon with our 11 attendees successful
in obtaining their qualification to apply for a Recreational Marine Driver’s
License (RMDL)
Both instructors (Colin and Reece) were impressed with our Club’s facilities and
vowed to make a return visit in the near future to attend a Friday night
members’ dinner.

Intro by Peter Deane – our new Sailing Master
There will be another sailing day this Sunday at the club, with the continuation of the small
boat racing calendar, which includes social sailing.
When: Sunday September 30
Time: First race commencing at approx. 11:00 am
High tide is at 1:09 pm (2.14 m)
Just a short introduction to anyone who hasn’t met me - my name is Peter Deane, and I
have a passion for sailing and boating. I hope to continue the fantastic work implemented
by Moss and the other committee members. However, without the support of the many
members who contribute their time and expertise to water events, we would not have such
a great boat club. I am hopeful that I can count on your continued support.
I will try to add a few ideas as sailing master and am open to any thoughts you might have.
As a continuation of the boating theme, I hope to feature each week a ‘water craft’
currently owned by a club member. Whether you sail, motor or paddle it, we will try to
feature it. I know we have a fantastic assortment of vessels among the members, so do me
a favour and email a photo and brief description of your vessel to
As a start, I have featured a boat I recently bought.
Boat Member’s Vessel: Peter Deane’s 10ft Skiff – “Marina”
I now own a 10ft historic skiff made of strip cedar, ash and silky
oak (I think). These were first raced in the early 1900’s and were
the forerunner of the 18ft skiffs today. After some maintenance, I
hope to be sailing “Marina” down at the club before too long. My
thanks have to go to Peter Fox and Bruce Legg for assistance in
finding and acquiring it.
Cheers, Peter D.
