Other Land

At the end of 1966 the General Committee considered the purchase of three blocks of land opposite the club, thought to be available for $12000. These were seen to be of future value for parking, boat storage, buildings, etc. The club later offered $9000 total (to be paid over 10 years), but did not succeed in the purchase. The price being asked was $5000 per block, which was felt by the Committee to be ‘beyond the resources of the club’.
Also in 1980 it was learnt that some neighbouring residential land was to be offered for sale. However on submitting the motion to members for its purchase at the expected price of $40,000, the motion was lost.


Shelter

In May 1968 it was decided to build a timber boat rack along the then east boundary (just beyond the con- crete shelter). Permit was obtained in August, and the rack was finished shortly afterwards.


Clubhouse

In May 1969 at a Special General Meeting the General Committee submitted a major plan to members to cost $7000, for construction of a western stairway, hot water service, extensions to locker and storeroom, construction of a lounge (with an extended locker room underneath), widening of the verandah, as well as improvements to kitchen, toilets, and other maintenance to the existing club house. This was to be funded by a debenture issue to members. A plan was drawn up by a member, Pam Phillips, which also included exten- sions to the race box including a radio room. All of this was approved at the Meeting. The debenture issue was fully subscribed.

A quote was received for $10,000, and a contract was let after some negotiation for $7480, on the basis of reduced requrements. Building operations commenced mid-1970, subsequently slowed down as the builder ran into financial problems, and stopped when the builder packed his tools and went off the job in November
1970. Through the assistance of Tom Robinson, John Holland Constructions provided a carpenter team and made the building fit for Opening Day, and then returned and completed the deck and kitchen, and hence made the building usable for the holiday period. Other aspects remained to be completed.

Legal action was later threatened against the club by the original contractor, and this was settled without court action. The Committee action was ratified by members at a Special General Meeting. The contractor returned, and after more assistance from the club and special agreements negotiated to extend the price to cover additional work remaining, the work was completed in March 1971.

The lounge, extended kitchen and extended verandah areas have been well used and appreciated by members since then. A fire escape stairway was added during 1973/4. These projects ultimately brought the building to the condition in which it substantially remained until 1989
