A full house enjoyed a thoroughly entertaining afternoon for what has now become the Annual HYC Christmas Lunch.
This year's lunch was in aid of the newly formed 'Joe English Trust', Joe being a long time friend of HYC and a legend of Irish Sailing.
A superb lunch, followed by colourful and entertaining after dinner speeches, capped off a great afternoon.
