Welcome back, Mick!

We are very pleased to welcome former WSC member Mick Holmes and his family back into the club. As other boats were already coming out of the water, Mick appeared on Sunday morning keen to get his new boat, an MG Spring 25 called 'Sloe Gin' into the water and sailing, and after lunch Mick was back in Weymouth Bay, where he sailed his Hustler 25.5 'Mandraki', his UFO 27 'Low Flyer' and the Projections 'White Lightning' and 'Shamrock' to such effect a decade ago. Mick is joined on board by his daughters, former cadets Lucy and Emma, and given their collective keenness to get out there and race 'Sloe Gin' will soon be a boat to watch out for. Welcome back, Mick - it's not been the same without you!Steve FraserCruiser Class Captain
