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:Clean Up Australia Day 2026
DESCRIPTION:It’s hard to believe that this initiative was the inspiration of one man\, Ian Kiernan\, AO. An avid sailor\, Ian was shocked and disgusted by the pollution and rubbish that he continually encountered in the oceans of the world. Taking matters into his own hands in 1989\, Ian organised a community event called ‘Clean Up Sydney Harbour’ with the support of a committee of friends. He expected just a few hundred volunteers. Instead\, 40\,000 people showed up\, sparking a national movement. \nOcean Crusaders is partnering with us this year!  It was founded in 2010 after founder Ian Thomson was confronted with the reality of seeing turtles killed by ocean waste. After a record breaking circumnavigation of Australia\, Ian decided to take action – to create the foundation to clean-up waterways and beaches and raise awareness of the problem with the people who use the oceans as a playground. \nYou will have noticed their blue wheelie bins for bottle recycling around the Squadron\, and equipment bins located all along the Esplanade with kit to clean up our foreshore all year around: \n       \n  \nHere at RQYS\, we believe in both group’s vision and are especially passionate about our beautiful marina and foreshore in Manly\, Brisbane.   Join us for a family-friendly morning collecting around the grounds of RQYS\, Inspiration Point/Dog Beach\, Davenport Drive and the Esplanade from Lota to Manly. \nIf you love Manly as much as we do\, let’s keep it beautiful together.  RSVP below and come along on Sunday\, 1st March 2026 and sign-in at Reception.   We will have a prize for the most rubbish collected (by weight) and a free sausage sizzle afterward as a reward for your efforts! \nWe hope you will bring the kids\, grandparents\, neighbours and more and join us for this special community event. \nProudly supported by The Yacht Sales Co. and Ocean Crusaders

SUMMARY:Topic Talks - Still\, I Sail: Beyond the Trade Winds - Med to Moreton Bay
DESCRIPTION:Stay on after WAGS for a special evening at RQYS.   \nWe invite you to join special guest speaker and solo world sailor and adventurer Banu Oney for an amazing presentation called “Still\, I Sail: Beyond the Trade Winds – Med to Moreton Bay”. \nDr. Banu Öney is a Turkish sailor and lifelong maritime voyager whose connection to the sea began in childhood. For more than twenty years\, she has lived continuously aboard her boats\, sailing extensively across the Marmara Sea\, the Aegean\, and the Eastern Mediterranean\, before expanding her voyages to the Red Sea\, the Western Mediterranean\, the Atlantic Ocean\, and the Caribbean. \nIn later years\, together with her husband\, New Zealand boatbuilder Peter Saggers\, she explored less-travelled routes through the Great Lakes\, the Pacific Northwest\, Alaska\, the U.S. West Coast\, and the South Pacific—passages that present unique navigational\, climatic\, and logistical challenges. \nIn this Topic Talk\, Dr. Öney shares practical insights\, lessons learned\, and memorable experiences from these voyages aboard her yachts DENIZE\, DENIZE II\, and DENIZE III\, offering fellow sailors inspiration and firsthand knowledge from routes beyond the usual cruising grounds. \nIf you have ever wanted to sail to one of these locations\, Banu will be able to offer first-hand insight into her adventures to: \n\nSea of Marmara\nErie Canal\nAegean Sea\nThe Great Lakes\nMediterranean Sea\nPacific North West\nRed Sea\nAlaska\nUSA West Coast\nCaribbean Sea\nSouth Pacific Ocean\n\nPlease RSVP by using the ticket link below for this free and fun evening at RQYS.  Open to Members\, Guests and Visitors. \n
