Rear Commodores are appointed by the President, Vice-President and Treasurer to support them in running the Club. For example in the past year, this has included setting up this new website and membership platform, sourcing merchandise such as wetsuits, or helping through subcommittees, for instance to establish a mentoring program or plan how a fleet renewal can best serve our members for the years to come.

Our fleet captains, with the help of bosuns as needed, are responsible for the good working order of our fleet. They arrange maintenance as needed, offering work hours to members who contribute their time to repair our equipment and maximize its availability for enjoyment on the water. They coordinate with the Commodore and Treasurer to ensure we have the required parts for that purpose, and inform the steering committee about the general condition of our fleet and our members' needs and wishes for equipment.
