The Laser Fleet is planning a practice Day on May 16. The plan will be to meet at the club by 10:00 and hit the water by 11. We'll talk through boat set up and and the conditions and then do some drills and short races.

If you are thinking about or planning on attending, please email Jon. jon-fbyc@jdeutsch.com
