I would like to take the opportunity to openly express my gratitude to the members of FBYC and the Board of Directors on behalf of the International Lightning Class Association’s Fishing Bay Fleet 509. Throughout the weekend, visiting sailors repeatedly commented on outstanding clubhouse, facilities and members. I would like to thank those members that actively participated in the Dixie District Regatta event. David Lee, Case and Rob Whittemore, John Beery, Mike Karn, Blake Kimbrough, Eric Bokinsky, Kelly O’Toole and numerous others provided great on-the-water race management. Many Thanks, Ron Buchanan Fleet Captain, ILCA Fleet 509
