SUMMARY:Sail Cruising Group - Autumn Colours Winery Tour
DESCRIPTION:Members intending to drive by car have queried the availability of fuel. Although some service stations have been out of fuel at times\, those occurrences mainly affect rural areas. If you travel along the coast to the outskirts of Sydney and then on the M31 to Albury you are unlikely to encounter any fuel issues as these areas are well supplied and lots of people commuting along these roads.\n\nThis is a cruise with a difference\, a Land Cruise with a nautical theme. The cruising group now has 4 vessels with owners based in the Albury-Wodonga region and this cruise offers an opportunity for a group visit to North East\nVictoria at a time when the autumn colours are at their best. We will hire a minibus and visit a number of wineries in the North East Victoria wine region. Wine tastings at each winery and grazing platters in between will make for a great day out. Our Saturday evening dinner will be followed on Sunday by a historical towns tour\, one or two wine tastings\, an attempt to fit the group into Victoria’s smallest pub and an end-of-cruise dinner with a quiz. \nImportant: If you intend to participate in this cruise book your flights early as the direct flight sells out quick. As of today (14 Nov 25) the return flight is $530 per\nperson. Alternative flights are available via Sydney. \nCost: Apart from flights and accommodation\, we will share the cost of the bus hire. Wineries normally charge a small tasting fee which is refunded when purchasing wines. Most wineries offer to ship purchased wine to your home. \nAs this is a new concept for a cruise we would appreciate an expression of interest (email to svmoonglade@gmail.com) as soon as possible. \nSEE MORE DETAILS HERE

SUMMARY:Topic Talks - Unlock the power of modern fishing tech with Ocean Logic
DESCRIPTION:Join us for April Topic Talks with Scott Harradine from Ocean Logic. Discover the advancements of Marine Electronics and learn how to avoid the pitfalls of these systems. Explore the latest tools and tech to put you on the fish faster and keep you there longer. Perfect for anglers of all experience levels looking to fish smarter\, not harder. \nHaving ventured the world working in Tokyo\, Singapore\, Norway and Brisbane on Commercial Ships\, Commercial Fishing fleets\, cruising and sports fishing vessels\, Tugs\, Sailing Yachts\, Super Yachts\, Scott will join us to impart some of his knowledge and share his stories of his passion – Marine Electronics! \nWhen: 7pm Thursday 23rd April \nWhere: Auditorium\, Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron \nReserve your seat now\, RSVP below! \nPlease note: Planning to dine in the Bistro before the presentation? We recommend ordering at least one hour prior to the presentation. Bookings are essential\, BOOK HERE \nFree and open to Members\, their Guests and Visitors to RQYS. \n  \nScott Harradine – owner of Ocean Logic. \n“​As a qualified marine electronics technician\, I was Factory trained in Tokyo\, Singapore\, Norway and of course Brisbane by a multitude of international marine electronics brands. \nI spent most of my career traveling around Australia and the Pacific repairing and installing on all types of vessels. Commercial Ships\, Commercial Fishing fleets\, cruising and sports fishing vessels\, Tugs\, Sailing yachts\, super yachts and the list goes on. \nThe biggest joy in my career while working for other marine electronics companies was turning on a customer’s freshly installed or re-calibrated system and showing them features or possibilities they never knew existed. That “wow that’s cool” reaction got me up in the morning and kept me awake at night thinking of other things I could have done to make that boat even better. \nJust as important however is helping those same customers avoid the pitfalls associated with these systems. knowing what not or when not to install is often what separates a good technician from the bad. \nWith the technology advancing every day and the range of equipment getting so far spread that it could make your head spin\, it’s becoming even more important to have trained professionals assisting you with your marine systems.” \n  \n

SUMMARY:Power Cruising - Easter Cruise to Venus Pools
DESCRIPTION:PLEASE NOTE: THIS CRUISE HAS BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE DUE TO ONGOING FUEL ISSUES. THE NEW DATES HAVE NOT YET BEEN SET\, WE WILL INFORM YOU OF THE NEW DATES ONCE THESE FUEL ISSUES HAVE BEEN RESOLVED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING.  \n  \nCruise along the Brisbane River through the City reaches\, passing the University of Qld\, then further along the river into the suburbs of Western Brisbane\, onto more rural land of Moggil and Mt Crosby. \n  \nDay 1 Good Friday April 3rd \nDepart from Green Island at 8am Heading to the Brisbane River entrance beacons. We will make our way up the Brisbane River\, passing through Newstead\, then the city reaches. \n    Note: \n      Channel 12 is VTS Brisbane Port Control \n      Channel 13 is Brisbane City Council Passenger Ferries \nIt is ideal to stick to the centre of the river\, as this allows the ferries to move. Please allow approximately 300 metres between our vessels while travelling up the Brisbane River. \nAfter passing under the Green Bridge at Dutton Park there will be no more ferries.  We will have a lunch break at anchor at Yerongapilly. We will travel along the River to Carrington Rocks Yacht Club\, where we will spend our first night at anchor. \n  \nDay 2 Easter Saturday April 4th \nDepart Carrington Rocks\, continue along the River to Karalee. On leaving the city and suburbs we will encounter open spaces of the countryside and the greater western suburbs of Brisbane then Ipswich. This area is often used by water skiers\, so we need to keep a good watch out for this activity. We will also pass over the cable of the Moggil Ferry. Depth to be confirmed but I am led to believe the cable is at a depth of 2.7 to 3 metres.  We then travel approx about 6 nautical miles to our next overnight anchorage at Kookaburra Park/Taylor’s Nook.  We will have a potluck gathering ashore. Potluck is when a plate from each vessel is brought ashore to share. \n  \nDay 3 Easter Sunday April 5th \nAfter a good night’s sleep\, a short dingy ride to Venus Pools. Departing 9am to have an exploration\, look around at \nthe pools. Depart anchorage after lunch for return journey. \nAfter travelling for 3 hours anchor at River Reaches. \n  \nDay 4 Easter Monday April 6th \nDeparting about 9am moving along River. For those who need to work on Tuesday we will say goodbye for your safe \ntravel home. For those lucky enough to stay out longer we will anchor off Mud Island. If tide is high enough we \ncan travel along the creek to the Rain Forrest in the centre of Mud Island. Past member Keith Spencer (now RIP) \ncollected the seeds to re-establish this forest that was original cut down to build the infrastructure of \nthe penal colony on St Helena Island. \n  \nDay 5 Tuesday April 7th \nDepending on weather depart Mud Island for the Sand Hills 10am. Meet ashore for BBQ Lunch. Ocean Spirit carries \na fair size portable BBQ to take ashore. \nEnjoy a social time ashore after a busy cruise to Venus Pools. \n  \nDay 6 Wednesday April 8th \nBreakfast onboard your boat before a social meet ashore. Depart for your home port at Leisure. \n  \nHigh tide at Brisbane bar Friday 3rd is 10.08 at 2.2m leaving sharply at 8.00 am should have a good run up river to Carrington Rocks. \nFor those wanting to travel at Easter and undertake in this trip please email Ron Cavanough on roncavanough@mail.com to confirm your attendance. \n
