Ahoy Corinthians!

The count-down has begun for the eagerly awaited FCYC Christmas Party and Prizegiving! 

6:30pm (for a 7pm start) on Saturday 6th December at Trinity Bowling Club, 

Lomond Road, Edinburgh 

After the Prizegiving there will be a raffle, food, a quizz, and our ever-popular FCYC Christmas Song. Please bring cash for the raffle and cash / card for the bar, which is open until 11pm. Let us know if you have any food allergies or dietary requirements by 23rd November. 

The Photo Competition is now open for entries – please send us your photos by email by the end of this month – the winner will be announced at the Party so get your entries in.

If you can donate raffle prizes, please let us know. Bring it along on the night (e.g. vouchers, bottles, biscuits and chocolates). Nothing out of date, unless it’s retro or vintage!

As in previous years, we are looking for nominations for the following prizes:

• Wooden Spoon, awarded for the best misadventure – with details, please
• Mechanical Miracle Award – the more ingenious or unconventional bodge the better! 

Looking forward to seeing you all on the 6th of December.

Ho, ho, ho!

As Edinburgh marks 900 years as a royal burgh, Seafaring Spirit brings the community together to celebrate Newhaven’s rich maritime heritage. Hosted by Newhaven Coastal Rowing Club, this free festival promises to be great fun for all the family! Come down, join the celebration, and be part of Newhaven’s seafaring story!

Ahoy Corinthians – the RFYC are hosting a Marine Radio Course on the 6th of April from 9.30 -16.00 in the RFYC Club House and they’ve extended their invitation to members of the Corinthians.

Remember – a Short-Range Certificate is the minimum qualification required by law to control the operation of VHF and VHF Digital Selective Calling (DSC) equipment on any British flagged vessel voluntarily fitted with a radio. This includes both fixed and handheld equipment using International channels. Please contact Hannah at RFYC if you are interested.

Keith’s funeral will take place on Monday 6 January at 3pm, at Mortonhall Crematorium.

We were extremely sad to learn of the recent death of Neville Fenwick, our Commodore from 1995-1998

Grid Iron, the Scottish Theatre company paid him this tribute:

Neville was a brilliant carpenter and set builder and worked on many Grid Iron shows.

He took even our most unusual requests in his stride, from being asked to sink fence posts along a half-mile stretch of pathway in Alloway to constructing a gigantic spider (a homage to Louise Bourgeois’ Maman) in Dundee’s Verdant Works. While those requests would often be met with a quizzical, ‘are you sure?’ look, he always delivered with his signature skill and panache.

A gentle, talented, interesting and interested man, he was one of a kind, and will be missed.
