Another fantastic turnout for this year’s 2015 NSC Awards night on Saturday, November 21st.
Dinner before-hand was nearly sold-out, and the expectant crowd overflowed into the Lounge. It was a great gathering as friends, team members, and fleets alike reconnected to recount the exploits of the 2015 Sailing season.
The many conversations in the room created a vibrant buzz such that the carefully prepared pre-ceremony slideshow soundtrack quickly became irrelevant :). The NSC Galley served up a fabulous, classy 3 course sit-down meal as soon as the enthusiastic participants could be seated, so the handing out of the glittering hardware could begin in somewhat fashionable time.
Our traditional MC for the night, Matt Davidge, did his usual entertaining and fantastic job of keeping things moving along through the many awards, while maintaining a high level of positive energy in the room and audience engagement. “Fix!”
