May 12th Sailing Clinic

There will be a sailing clinic on boat handling and sail trim this Saturday, May 12th. Anyone interested in learning some new skills or brushing up on some old ones will meet at the committee boat on Q-Dock at 1:00.  We will have instruction time on the dock, then onto boat handling and sail trim on the high seas.  Dinner will be at Terri and Terry's house just off Eden Isle.  Plan to arrive by 6:30.

On November 5-6, five Catalina 22s participated in a cruise to the Sugarloaf Mountain area of Greers Ferry Lake. Four of the boats met at Heber Springs Marina on Saturday morning and began with a wing-and-wing 7-mile downwind run to the Narrows section of the lake where they met up with the fifth boat. Sailors included George Yerger on Sirocco, Bill Lammers on Cool Change, Frank and Kim Maggard on Summer Breeze, Steve Jones on Windchaser, and Terry Reifeiss on Tinkerbelle. The fleet dropped a hook in Hurricane Bay off of the Narrows, George attached his grill to his stern to cook chili and hotdogs, and the group had a relaxing lunch. After lunch, we all sailed under the Narrows bridge with plenty of room to spare. It was not long and a full view of Sugarloaf Mountain was in sight. Because it was getting late in the afternoon, the fleet decided not to stop at the mountain and to head straight for the cove behind Sugarloaf Marina.
