RACE WEEK

Race Week lived up to it’s reputation for the best sailing of the season. Jennifer & Steve Uhl hosted the fleet to a wonderful party with a million dollar view. As usual, the event was packed. This year we were even treated to a racing debrief with video courtesy of North Sails. The top finishers were: Dave Nelson / Frank Hart, Pendleton / Raisides, Jamie Holley, Hourihan / Frisch, Cooke / Kaznoski.

LABOR DAY REGATTA

Vonda and Jim Raisides hosted the fleet over Labor Day weekend. Everyone had a terrific time, especially the kids on the trampoline. Phenomenal hosts and what a venue! Thank you Vonda and Jim for opening your home to the fleet.

FROSTBITING

Frostbiting is on this year at the Cottage Park Yacht Club in Winthrop, with some space available on the pier and wet sailing in slips. There should be a good turnout by locals. The first race day is Sunday, November 2nd . First start is at 1 pm. The fee for everything is $100. Boats can be brought to the club beginning this weekend. If you are interested, please contact Jerry Blouin 781-9990-3548, jerrblouin@gmail.com.
