Our BMYS Wackett Trophy NavRally event for 2021 was held last Sunday the 18th of April, on a day where the weather had threatened but in the end was relatively kind!
The A-team of John & Anita Giuliano were back in winning form with an amazing score of only 10 penalty points, with Nigel Abbott of Mordialloc in 2nd place, and Bill Joughin coming in 3rd and also taking the Handicap prize.
Thanks to all participants, and to the Boating Committee members for their hard work in preparation and on the day.
Sir Lawrence Wackett was our club’s 2nd Commodore & a much-loved member, but that was only a small part of his life - he is revered for his contributions to aviation in Australia as a Pilot, Designer, Engineer, Manager & Entrepreneur, and is widely remembered as the ‘father of the Australian aircraft industry’. An amazing Australian.”
