Peter Hopkins, from MAST, will be describing the changes in the legislation concerning Electronic Visual Distress Signals or EVDS. These are now acceptable as an alternative to the four handheld flares required in sheltered and open waters. If you opt to carry an EVDS, you will also need to carry on board a GPS-enabled EPIRB and VHF radio. The EVDS is not efficient in daylight so the EPIRB and VHF will aid in distress. Peter has been involved in writing the standard for these so he is very well informed.
The CYCT annual event where we gather to welcome new members and get to meet and chat with each and every member. The Kettering Yacht Club is our venue and the traditional seafood chowder and a light BBQ will be available at no cost to all members. This year it will be BYO drinks as the bar is not available. Cruise Contact is Membership Officer Sue Powell onboard Yaraandoo II on 0458 089 013.
We’ll meet at the RYCT.
A fun and interactive review of radio questions!
Then dinner at Chillies.
