Please contact Program Director Meghan Hartnett with any questions Our Annual membership meeting is has been rescheduled for February 10th from 4 pm- 6 pm at Loch Lomond Yacht Club. We will come together to hear the annual report of the organization and to meet new members and develop new sailing opportunities. We would love for you to join us as we celebrate the New Year and get excited for the upcoming sailing season in 2019!
We have some new members to welcome so please come on down to welcome new members and meet with existing friends for an Open Sail earlier in the day from 10:30 am- 3:30 pm with the Annual Meeting starting in the clubhouse at 4pm with snacks provided and drinks available for purchase from the club bar. Questions? Contact us! Join us for two action-packed days on the water where we will practice sailing technique and examine some of the finer points of sail trim, weight balance and boat kinetics, sailing a marked course (windward/leeward and triangle courses) and capsize recovery, taught on Picos, Zests and Quba. This is a great opportunity to refine your small boat sailing skills and learn a new talent or two.
Price: $200 Location: Loch Lomond Marina Prerequisites: Completion of Intro to Sailing or permission from instructor. Days: September 16 & 23 Time: 10-4 Boats: Picos and Quests If you are interested in becoming and Open Sailhost, please join us for Open Sail Host Training on June 24 from 10 am- 2 pm. Time for lunch break allowed and plenty of fun on the water learning how to drive safety boat and how to rescue boats in distress and other useful tools which will allow you to host Open Sails on you own.
RSVP for this training by emailing Jane! We will be making some minor changes to the Open Sail rules. Mostly to the allowance of 'guests' that members can bring and the basic skill requirements for sailing the sport boats during Open Sail. This would be a great time to think about either taking Advanced Dinghy class, or getting "checked out" on the sport boats (Quests and Zests). SEA recently lost a beloved member. Mo Witzel, one of the first of the Marin Yacht Club liaisons for Sail Camp, has passed away at age 99.
Mo was a fierce supporter of Sail Camp at MYC. He would row over each day, from his home on the canal, to check on the kids. His little boat, now known as the "Mo", was donated to SEA a while back and is rowed now by our members. Mo, his wife, Jane, and other MYC members hosted the graduation barbecues for Sail Camp. In many ways, he was the father of Sail Camp at Marin Yacht Club. Fair winds, Mo. We love you and will miss you. In partnership with Division of Boating and Waterways, SEA will be hosting a Safe boating day May 19th from 12- 3pm during which SEA will be open to the public for mini sailing lessons, boating and harbor safety lessons and PFD check and trade-in. All SEA members are invited to come join us and go sailing. Also, if your PFD is old or needs replacement, come down to trade in your PFD for a new one provided by Division of Boating and Waterways.
