Approaching the Mid-Season Mark!

Wow! We have had quite the summer so far! June and July could not have been more amazing in terms of weather. With good wind and sun everyday our sailors have been given every chance to learn and improve their skills! We had our first rainy day on Monday which is quite a difference from last year when we had a rainy month!

There are still more regattas to be sailed. We have the Laser regatta coming up this Saturday. If you plan on sailing in the regatta make sure you register online by tomorrow! The link for registration is :

TJ Noonan and Nelson Millett sailed a tough regatta at Bass River Yacht Club yesterday. They made improvements throughout the day working on their spinnaker technique. They finished up with a solid 4th place!

This weekend we are sending 4 sailors to the Vineyard Haven Regatta. Let's make sure we send positive thoughts their way in hopes that they sail fast and stay safe!

There are two Opti Regattas left, Wianno (July 28th-29th) and Hyannisport (August 4th). If you haven't done two regattas already make sure you sign up for one of these!

Mid-Season Evaluations will be ready by Friday next week. They will be available to be picked up in the office if you already requested that, or they will be mailed to the address marked on your registration.

See you all on the water!
