Contact through the Club: Cathy McDonald, Divisional Secretary 02 99975511 The Timber Boat division was created in September 1998, as a large number of boat owner members had a mutual interest in timber boats. The division continues to grow with its annual Timber Boat Festival being one of the largest events on the RMYC calendar. The division’s main focus is social and educational, with regular raft-ups and information nights. “For those who love good company and messing about in boats”
