Due to the anticipated effects of Hurricane Ian, we are postponing the 2022 Chesapeake Bay ILCA Masters Championship and will not be sailing it this weekend. Given the forecasted track of the storm - it doesn't look like are going to have conditions that would support having the event this weekend.

I want to thank everyone who was ready to come this weekend and all of the volunteers who had set aside their weekend to help put on a great event.  We are going to try and plan a make up date later this year and there is more information for competitors on the event page.

Mark your calendars for our end-of season celebration regatta and oyster roast, Saturday, October 29, 2022.  Here's the skinny:

  • Oysters:  roasted, steamed dumped on tables.  
  • Bring your favorite dish.  It can be either chili, a shared dish or dessert,  It should be enough to feed 6-8 people.  Claim your bragging rights!
  • Start time will be when Mr. Roberts returns to the dock following the race (hopefully between 15:00 -16:00 hours)
  • Club will provide oysters, beer, wine and non-alcoholic drinks
  • Cost:  $5.00/person. 

You need to register for both the race and the roast by October 20.

Our water supply is low.

Water has been shut off to the Jackson Creek Docks, Dry Sail Lot, One-Design Lot, Junior Field, & Fishing Bay Ramp until further notice in order to conserve the limited water we have in the tank.  The Jackson Creek Pump Out is also unavailable.  I anticipate enough water in storage to restore full service by Friday, September 9th.
