New Club Jinker
The Club's new, all-purpose jinker is now ready for use at a cost of $150 for the first week and $25 per day thereafter.
For security and safety, the front right-hand wheel is chained and locked. The key to the lock is the same key as that that opens the winch house. The keys are held by authorised club members who know all the tricks in driving the winch:
- Harold Keay – 0428413122
- Graham Monck – 0427349933
- John Ford - 98444057
- Josh Hughes – 0421746515
To book to use the jinker and/or use the winch, put your name, contact number and the date you wish to use the jinker/winch on the blackboard in the small cupboard on the front door of the winch house. Then, ring one of the winch operators to confirm their availability on your chosen day. Finally, email all these details to the Club Manager via office@prsc.com.au. Please don’t forget to remove your booking from the blackboard once your winch session is complete.
There is no charge for use of the winch and accounts for the use of the jinker will be sent out monthly for prompt payment.
Maiden
We highly recommend club members, their friends and family check out the movie Maiden showing at Orana Cinemas as part of the Film Harvest on Wednesday 19 February.
This film follows a sailing theme and comes highly recommended by movie rating site, Rotten Tomatoes. Check the link out here.
Tickets are available at Orana Cinemas.
Ron Tough Yachting Foundation Funding
Members of the WA yachting fraternity are invited to apply for financial assistance to progress their dream of sailing success via the Ron Tough Yachting Foundation.
The aim of RTYF is to improve the overall standard of sailing in WA, so importance is placed on encouraging sailors to travel overseas to compete, learn and then mentor their peers on return.
Please visit the website to see terms and conditions. Applications close on Monday 10 February.
Search for the Sesqui Centenary Trophy
The Sesqui Centenary Trophy is a King George Sound Trophy for Div2 and unfortunately it appears to be missing in action.
Do you, or anyone you know, have it? The club would very much like to restore it to its rightful place, on display at the club.
If you have it, or know where it is, please arrange for its return or call the office with information. Thank you for your help.
Membership map
Princess Royal Sailing Club is a friendly, family club committed to promoting all aspects of sailing and ensuring that the sport of sailing is available to all.
To this end, PRSC has adopted the national Australian Sailing initiative SailPass, designed to offer a flexible and affordable sailing opportunity for those keen to try sailing, some for the first time.
The SailPass can be purchased here at a cost of $15 per sail, up to a maximum of 10. Club skippers are able to purchase a book of 10 passes which they can offer to guests, if they wish. The SailPass ensures that all participants are covered by Australian Sailing insurance and that all members of the club are able to access facilities in an equitable manner.
Please refer to the club's membership matrix below to see what each type of membership offers.

Wednesday Morning Sailing
Princess Royal Sailing Club will resume Wednesday morning sailing opportunities as of Wednesday 15 January.
Saturday night meals at the club
This week The Tickell family are providing a delicately spiced, home-cooked pulled pork roll with fresh coleslaw for $8.
No bookings but first in, best dressed from 5.30pm!
Max Tickell last weekend presented Commodore Susette Evans with the lucky meat tray. We're sure it was much enjoyed!
The meat raffle is gaining in popularity and it's no wonder as, while the contents may vary in style, they are always of top quality. Thanks to Reeves on Campbell for their support.
Bring your loose change to purchase two tickets for $5, or one for $3. See you there!
Friday Restaurant Meals @ PRSC
Sally of Runes Catering offers a delicious Friday night dinner option with a distracting view of the twinkling lights across Princess Royal Harbour.
See the image below for a detailed menu, and follow our Facebook page for the most up-to-date information on cheap Saturday meals and some great social opportunities planned for the new year.
