Classic Boat rally

Hi, as you may be aware,   I am the President of the Paynesville Classic boat rally on 5-6 March 2016. 

This has turned out to be a major event with over 180 boats entered our Web page is www.thepaynesvilleclassic.com.au and our Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/424446431070177/

On the Sunday we will also be holding separate events involving the Ferry. At 11.00 am on the Sunday a Yacht parade involving all the old yachts: Gaff rigs; Couta boats; H28s Dragons; and so on. Ian Lewis will be stopping the ferry in the middle of the Straits - a flare will be lit, and the Yachts will head off down the straits in a competitive parade. This should be quite a spectacle. 

There will also be fishing boat races and lots of other things. 

But the reason I am emailing you is there is also a expo come community type market happening in the car park area of the yacht club. This event will bring lots of people to the area and i am wondering if some one from Raymond Island could come over and promote the Island. The Koala walk or anything else that you would like to get the word out about. 

Let me know your thoughts, 
Regard Peter
