In yachting, that is known as "the stern".
The Royal Moma Yacht Club (RMYC) held its Gilligan’s Island-themed shindig this weekend, led by Commodore Adam “Deep Six” Goodman and CFO Nick “Poopdeck” Papa. The afternoon included the camaraderie of sharing barbecued victuals followed by the competitiveness of fierce and full-on boating. While some vessels struggled in the water, it is early days yet for the RMYC, and most members — whilst enjoying a post-event beverage at the clubhouse a.k.a. the RAN Cafe Carmelo — seemed to deem the day a qualified success. “Arrr,” said one of them. More details to soon re upcoming events. For now, some photos from the afternoon.
