The marina has been busy with everyone getting their boats ready for summer. Several boats are in, with other members hurrying to catch up.
The Social, Cruising, and Racing Chair people are working so we can have a fun summer. Our first event is the Fun race & picnic at Markley Marina (Saturday June 3). Doug promises it will, indeed, be a “fun” race this year. Also, there will be a general membership meeting following the picnic, so plan to be there.
'Deanna J.'s' new rudder arrived. Bill installed it last week, just in time for launch.
Hope to see all you new and old members at our get togethers this summer.

Events this season include the "Fun Race" on June 3rd & the CRCA International Regatta September 9th.
The Spring and Fall race series schedule is shown in the Club event calendar to the left.
The Fun Race will, hopefully, be more fun than race. The plan is to meet at 1CR @ 11:00 am. There will be no start line, at the horn just sail in the direction given by the committee boat. Sail with one sail only- main sail or jib. Points will awarded for "fun stuff". Finishing counts, but is not all that important - it's more important to participate & have fun. Leave your dodger up & your grill on - points added for both. There will be a picnic & general membership meeting at Markley after the "race".
