On behalf of Remy Millott, our Managing Director, and the rest of the management team,
I am proud to present the souvenir brochure from the 22nd Annual Pinmar Yachtsman’s
Golf Tournament.
The 2010 tournament broke all attendance records. 352 players entered and over 840 guests
attended the prize-giving dinner at the Gran Casino Mallorca. Over 100 sponsors supported the
event (listed on page 65) and 90 volunteers (page 57) put in a huge amount of work to make
it all possible.
Thanks to all our players, sponsors, volunteers and guests, and especially Awlgrip our co-sponsor,
and our Principal Sponsors Marina Barcelona 92, Sturge, Freedom Maritime, Master Yachts and
Rybovich, the tournament was another great success. The great generosity of all who took part
meant we were able to raise another € 46,000 for our various charities – a fantastic total.
On page 134 you can see where the money went.
We are very grateful to all who made donations and also to all the volunteers and special
thanks to Roger Horner of E3 Group and Richard Gardiner of Global Services for running the
Ugly Sisters’ Bar. Altogether the total raised at the golf over the two days was a record
€ 17,063 and that does not include the extra €2,000 we raised thanks to Ian Knight of Lighthouse
Marine and Johnny Greenall, Dan Vickers and Sean Tinkler-Rose of Sloane Helicopters and those
who paid for a spectacular flight over the course and beyond.
I think everyone who played agreed that the Son Gual golf course was absolutely stunning and
on their behalf I should like to thank all of the Pamer family and their charming staff for their
warm and efficient hospitality and also Gareth Anwell and his incredible greenkeeping team who
managed to present the course in impeccable condition despite the torrential rain they had to
cope with in the preceding days. I’m sure you will all be delighted to know that we are returning
there in 2011 and, while we are on the subject, please note that the dates are 13, 14 and 15
October 2011 and NOT as shown in your Pinmar diaries.
Thanks also to Richie Prior for hosting the Prizegiving Dinner. For this year’s event we are going back
to the Casino and Come Fly with Me show. Sadly the founder and owner of the show, Jacques Sasson,
died recently and we have also just lost another larger than life character, John Rule. Although neither
was a golfer they both had a significant impact on our tournament. (Please see page 133)
We would also like to thank Jacques’s daughter, Cathy Sasson, and the rest of her brilliant team from
Globo Balear for organising such a splendid evening at the Casino and especially Simon Hirst, Claire
Darbyshire and show director Martyn Smith. Also Jo Lane and Ayeesha Wood of Diamond Events for
looking after the travelling players and guests together with Nicky Roberts of Ticket Travel.
A big thank you to the Marshall Islands Yacht Registry for sponsoring the Friday party at Il Paradiso
for all the travelling players.
Once again Malcolm and Susie Hall and Jonny Rapp of Compass Design have put a huge amount
of work into this brochure which is only possible thanks to our many advertisers and our
volunteer photographers Simon Williams, Oliver Neilson, Stuart Pearce, Aveena Clarke, Esther
Barney and Ben Sturge.
