Off-Season Fleet Activity Still Taking Place

Greetings fellow sailors. All three keel boats remain in the yard undergoing off season repairs and maintenance. Work effort has been relatively light, but will continue through the opening of the season. A note of consequence from recent maintenance efforts, the engine and gearbox on Gabi are not in good shape. There’s potential that we will remove the inboard gas engine and move to an outboard on a bracket. More to come as the fleet committee members explore options. We are actively looking at procuring a more suitable skiff to serve as race committee/mark boat for regattas, including both the Sunday Series, Junior Sailing, and the Governor’s Cup. There may be adequate funding from a generous donation. More to follow on that. WRYC is also looking to add a stand-up paddle board and wind surfer to the fleet, thanks again to generous donations. The hope is to provide club members a multitude of options for getting out on the water.

If you have any input, suggestions, questions, or comments, please feel free to reach out to me.

See you out on the water (hopefully soon),

Scott Titus, Fleet Captain
