On a non-scoring nice competitive day of sailing with again a tricky wind out of the North north East, it was both a fun and sad day as we close out the season. I for one really enjoyed my first season of racing with you all. Can’t wait to start it back up again sometime in May.

It was great to meet and greet the AMYA Region 1 Director Glenn Chalder. I “Will” be leaning on Glenn for insights that may help expand our club. And a big thanks for helping us pull the marks and getting things a shore.

Attached are the season final results. I did make adjustments to the sailors who only competed once or twice, so I backed them out.

Fokke with a really nice season, wins the overall season series. Bill David places 2nd, Greg 3rd.  All the best to our MHBMYC sailors going to Nationals Oct 15, 16, 17 in Newport for the DF95 class. The club has purchased a jacket with the MHBMYC logo for Fokke to wear proudly during Nationals! I also have a few hats with our logo for sale. I’ll have them in about 2 weeks.

Finally, a big Thanks for welcoming me into the club. Like I stated earlier, I had a lot of fun , I learned a ton about sailing, ( I now know what Starboard Tack means!, Thanks Fokke) and like Nick stated, we should socialize a little after sailing. We will work on that for next season.

Hope to see you all down at the cove in May, if not sooner. Take care and here’s hoping for a healthy off season.

And for those who won’t be sailing with us,” Fair Winds and Following Seas”.

All the best,

The Directors at MHBMYC
