PC Classic 2003

Royal Varuna Yacht Club Founders


In Celebration of Her Majesty Queen Sirikit’s 72nd Birthday
All proceeds will benefit Charity Projects under the care of
The Rotary Club of Jomtien-Pattaya

The Pattaya Mail in conjunction with the Royal Varuna Yacht Club and the Royal Cliff Beach Resort will be once again organise one of the most spectacular sporting events on the Eastern Seaboard, to recognise and honour Peter Cummins, former Commodore of the Royal Varuna Yacht Club, who has done so much to promote sailing in Pattaya and in the Kingdom.

Famous for many years as a paradise of water sports and marine-related pursuits, Pattaya benefits enormously from this event which this year will attract an even greater number of sportsmen and women, with more than one hundred sailors from 15 countries participating in what must be regarded as one of the most colourful and environmentally friendly activities for all the family. The regatta has the support of the Tourism Authority of Thailand, the Office of the Governor of Chonburi and Pattaya City.

Last year’s event attracted hundreds of spectators and extensive press and TV coverage, many lining the Royal Cliff Beach Resort water-front to see, close-hand, the yachts in action. This year all of the action takes place in the bay immediately in front of the Royal Varuna Yacht Club with one of the rounding marks at the Royal Cliff Beach Resort foreshore.

But it is not just colour and action. It is also the extensive press and media coverage, which the Regatta attracts and which presents a most positive side of Pattaya to the world at large. Extensive coverage of the pre-race preparations and the race day itself is guaranteed by the Pattaya Mail, Pattaya Blatt, Pattaya Mail Plus TV and Capital TV with our international team of journalists including Peter Cummins, Thailand’s most internationally recognised sailing correspondent. Other national and international press will also cover and spread news of the event to a worldwide audience.

But the most noble cause of this year’s event is that the proceeds from your sponsorship will be donated to worthy charity projects in our community serviced by the Rotary Club of Jomtien-Pattaya which include scholarships for children, assisting residents at the Banglamung Home for the Aged, Preserving the Environment, Happiness from Teachers to Students and other worthwhile projects to alleviate the suffering and needs of the underprivileged in our community.

The prizes presentations & celebrations will be held at the Royal Cliff Beach Resort the same evening. Throughout the years, this party has been the talk of the town. A fabulous array of splendid food and drinks awaits our guests and we assure you that it will be a night to remember. We plan the festivities to be entertaining and at the same time to create goodwill, the results of which will bring much relief to those whom we have indicated as recipients of your kind sponsorship. We welcome members of the community to attend this gala affair.
