• the photographers, Alex and Adrienne Vukovic,
who took photos;
• Tina Ernfridsson, independent Arbonne
consultant, for her support of the series;
• the RPAYC, the YRC and the Board for supporting
the series; and
• all of the very generous donors throughout the
season for the many and varied lucky door prizes
(special thanks to Lyndall Bacon, Team Windcraft
and Sue Muller for the fabulous prizes at the LBD
presentation night).
The series came to an end with the reintroduction
of the Little Black Dress night, this time with a Spanish
Twist. We were treated to a talk by RPAYC member and
Olympic Silver Medallist Nina Curtis who is currently
training for the Tokyo Olympics. A great night of paella
and dancing was enjoyed by crews from all yachts and
the start boat. Thank you all for making it such a great
night, and a fantastic season.
I am looking forward to the new season (starting to
get the boat ready now!) and hope that we can grow the
level of participation with new skippers and members
willing to loan their boat to this wonderful series.

after the races;
