CNCE

NAV-LETTER 
Oct '18

Dear CNCE members and sailor friends,

In a few days, Jimmy Cornell​, the round-the-world sailor and founding father of the 'ARC', a rally across the Atlantic for everyone, will visit Brussels. Join us on 25 October to find out what he has to say about today's challenges in the world of sailing.
If, after this event, you feel like setting sail straight away, we invite you to join us this autumn/winter in Zeeland on board BlueOne!

On a very sad note, we inform you of the passing of the founding and honorary club member Rainer Simon. His commitment to the CNCE will not be forgotten.

Keep on sailing,
The CNCE team

This winter CNCE has registered BlueOne for the Goofies, an informal race in Colijnsplaat (NL) where having fun is the main objective. It started in 1984 and has grown into a large sailing event with many competitive teams.

On the Sundays after the Goofies, we offer additional sailing training with spinnaker handling (if the weather is suitable).

In memoriam - Rainer Simon

Picture

It is our sad duty to inform you of the passing of the founding and honorary club member Rainer Simon, a retired European Commission official. We, his many CNCE friends, will remember him as a knowledgeable, yet humble sailor, a valuable companion and a trusted shipmate, and will truly miss him now that he has moved on to eternally sail the celestial seas.
