I think we can finally say goodbye to the snow and look forward to a great summer of sailing. The boats are finally getting back in their element and our cruise leaders have been hard at work making sure we’ll have a blast! |

Cuando Caliente al Sol? Translation – How hot is the sun? You decide at the Cinco de Mayo (1 month and 20 days late) cruise. Bring your favorite spicy hot Mexican hors d'oeuvres (Wild or Mild you decide) to share with cocktails after the traditional miniature golf tournament. Considering that Metro requires us to be at the dock by 10AM we will also schedule a Siesta for those who need a nap after getting up early! |

Race Review |
|
Doug Post - Race Committee Chairman |
|
Hello Racers, |
|
May 2, 2005 |
|
As I write this the CRCA race season is 10 days away & my stick is still not stepped. We have had both the CRCA & the ABYRA Skipper’s meetings and there are 4 boats signed up. But I know more are going to race because I have more boats signed up for Race Committee duty. |
|
The CRCA Thursday night race notice, the Sailing Instructions and the Notice for the CRCA Spring Invitational are all posted on the web at “crcasail.org” |
|
The CRCA Spring Invitational, May 21st, will be an ABYRA event with 3 starts, ABYRA PHRF, ABYRA JAM and CRCA boats only. This race will be the first of 7 races, which will make up the ABYRA Summer Invitational Series. The CRCA is sponsoring 1 race, AYC 2 races and NSSC 5 races. If you race the other summer invitational races (St. Elmo’s, Macomb Daily…) then you may wish to race the ABYRA starts so your scores count towards the series totals. You need 4 of 7 races to qualify. |
|
If you have any questions please call me in the evenings @ 586-414-7864. It’s your responsibility to sign up for committee boat duty – I will get that list posted to the web as well. |
