Passing of RBYC general manger Simon Tan

Dear Members,

I’m certain everyone will be saddened to know that our RBYC General Manager, Simon Tan, passed away unexpectedly yesterday evening. His funeral was held this morning.

Simon has been a committed club member and employee for many years. He has dedicated his energy, enthusiasm and generosity to helping make the club a wonderful experience for thousands of members and their families.

He enjoyed his club life as a sailor and powerboater and will be remembered especially for his many years crewing the race winning Javelin with the late Doc Hart.

The club will feel the loss of a treasured member and employee.

If anyone would like to make a contribution to the family please contact the club office on Monday. We will be in contact with his family.

Our sincere condolences to his wife and family at this difficult time.

Allan Riches
