2007 Cruise Calendar

Posted: February 17, 2007 Under: Cruising By No Comments

Remember, it only takes two boats to start a cruise. Mention it out loud and others will say “That sounds good, I’m going too!” Last year we had great participation from both sailors and power boaters alike and I’m sure that will continue. If you are new to cruising (as we all were at one time) and would like some mentoring to get started, please be in touch. There is no finer way to spend a weekend, a week, or longer, than cruising with your friends and fellow boaters. Closely following last year’s successful calendar, the 2007 York River Yacht Club Cruise Calendar is outlined below.

This year's Moonlight Race was atypical in that it saw big winds, big waves and lots of boat speed. The only thing missing was the moon, which didn't appear until after most boats had crossed the finish line. Steve Bowen and crew on Dream On put a big hurt on the spinnaker boats, and Bill Strauss and the Excalibur team did the same in the non-spin fleet.
