RMYS welcomes Polar Bear back to the club with new owner StJohn Cranna. A message from him:
|
I am very excited to have Polar Bear back at RMYS! Brief story/plans for me and Polar Bear:
|
This will be my first yacht I have owned and I am very excited to be doing it at RMYS. I plan to enter the twilight racing scene once my skills have grown and I am comfortable skippering Polar Bear. I also have plans to do over night, weekend and hopefully longer trips on her exploring our water ways.
|
I have always wanted to own a yacht and this is a dream come true!
