Ponsonby Cruising Club Sailing School Has Five New Boats

The Ponsonby Cruising Club (PCC) is excited to announce the arrival of five new additions to the Sailing School fleet. They are the result of proceeds of two fund raising Art Exhibitions and a very generous private donation.

The PCC has been involved in dinghy sailing for over 75 years and their Sailing School has been going for almost that length of time teaching children, young adults and adults how to sail. These boats are the first new boats in over 20 years and are part of on ongoing upgrade to the fleet. Their Head Coach - Jonathon Reynolds (JR) and his assistant coaches will be very eager to try these fast little Far East 11s out.

The PCC was delighted that the Hon. Nikki Kaye MP had time to join them to christen the boats in the traditional way before she, Patron - Peter Montgomery, Commodore - Dave Fredric and Club members joined together for refreshments in the Club House.
