What Members Say About Us
Commodore’s Cocktail
“The whole evening was a great credit to The Poole Yacht Club.
I just wanted to thank you and your team for the work you
all did last night. I am not a natural “cocktail party” person but I thoroughly enjoyed the evening. It is always unfair to single out individuals at times like these but I will just say that the food was great and the team of young ‘waiters and waitresses’ were all amazing.”
