Club Night - Fireside Chat with Mark and Gavin, it's all about the punt!

Ever wondered what’s really involved in lifting your chains, checking your blocks, and keeping your boat secure inside the harbour?

Come along and hear Gavin and Mark share their knowledge — including Gavin’s tale of installing blocks for Revenue Cutter inside the boat harbour, and how a “mooring muscle boy” became a rocket!

You’ll learn:
⚓ How to inspect chains and spot potential issues
⚓ Why regular servicing (every 2 years) is the best protection in heavy winds
⚓ The story of the Punt — over 100 years old and still servicing moorings in Clyde Quay

The Mooring Punt isn’t a dark art — it’s a simple winch with rollers that does an important job. This is your chance to see how it works, ask questions, and even book a slot to have your mooring serviced so you can sleep well knowing your boat is secure.
