Rear Commodore Flag - It has been purchased and Tony will send it to Harry

VI. Presentations:
Tony Distefano presented information on basic chart reading. The main reason for this is that we shouldn't be relying soly on electronic equipment but should continually practice reading charts, plottig courses and figuring out where we are without the aid of electronic equipment.
