Lizzie has come home
- 12 Aug 2010
- Royal Port Nicholson Yacht Club (Inc)
- Just over one hundred years after she was built, in almost the same spot, Lizzie has returned home. On a lovely Wellington afternoon and with a spring tide sailing academy manager Matthew Wood joined Gavin Pascoe and his team of Lizzie supporters to tow her around to Clyde Quay Boat Harbour from Evans Bay. With a few strategic hits of a hammer the slipway jumped back into action and before you knew it Lizzie was back in her birth place. Gavin and his team will now begin restoring her back to her former glory and we look forward to her flying the club burgee and sailing again on the Harbour.

Wellington Sea Kayak Network visit the Yacht Club
- 22 Apr 2010
- Royal Port Nicholson Yacht Club (Inc)
- After one cancellation due to bad weather, an evening paddle took place on Friday 9th of April 2010 in lieu of a normal club meeting. 8 people gathered at Balaena bay at 6:00pm , some paddling from Greta Point where they house kayaks at the Kupe boatshed. It was a perfect evening with a gentle northerly breeze just ruffling the water. We paddled toward Lambton harbour as it was getting dark and the city lights greeted us as we rounded point Jerningham. The fountain was playing and there were a few hopeful fishermen still out on Oriental parade as our small fleet made its way towards the Royal Port Nicholson Yacht Club, nestled in a marina between the Freyberg pool and the Overseas Terminal.
