NYC member Fred was horribly disfigured a few weeks ago when one of his cabin door handles mysteriously leaped up and hit him in the face. We at NYC are concerned and ask that all members put in place new safety practices before going to bed. Good seamanship dictates that all cabin door handles be removed before going to bed. If you are not able to remove the cabin door handles then as an alternative we suggest investing in a Cabin Door Handle Protection Device as pictured being awarded to Fred this weekend. We wish Fred and everyone safe and happy sailing for the rest of the summer.
