FBYC Captains and Crew,

If you wish to have a safety inspection done of your boat at the Club on Saturday morning, May 18, 2013, then please let me know via email or mobile phone.  We have members of the USCG Auxiliary Mathews Flotilla that have volunteered to perform the vessel examinations.

I will coordinate the appointment time for your inspection, which should only take about twenty minutes

For an idea of what they look for you may visit the following link:http://wow.uscgaux.info/content.php?unit=V-DEPT&category=virtual-safety-check.

or if you wish you can do your own assessment.

My mobile phone is 757-343-9890.

Safe sailing,
George Sadler
Cruising Division Commander

The Young Adult Members Committee is pleased to announce its action-packed schedule for 2019. This year's highlights include a pre-season bowling night March 23rd in Richmond; an enhanced "Last Friday of the Month" movie night series, which was clearly a family-favorite for kicking the weekend; a fully loaded Memorial Day weekend; several unique cruise-in-company excursions; three different themed cookouts; and, of course, our penultimate annual corn hole tournament over Labor Day weekend. As a reminder, YAM events are open to all members, guests and accompanied prospective members...so come one, come all...this will be our best year of all! Click here to see full schedule!

This Saturday the YAMs, led by committee members Katie & Arch Durham, will be doing a fun lunch cruise in company to Hole in the Wall Grill. This Jimmy Buffet themed lunch meetup is just a short run up into Gwynn's Island located by land at 384 Old Ferry Rd, Grimstead, VA 23064; or by water just tucked into Wharf's Creek (approximately 5 nautical miles from FBYC).

The first round of 'Boat Drinks' will be on the YAM committee, followed by a pay your own way lunch. Be sure to indicate your intent to join up via our facebook event page: Cheeseburger in Paradise Rendezvous. or contact us directly here: Email YAM Chair. 

I am completely amazed how rich the "Corinthian spirit" has been at our club and how many members are volunteering for our upcoming two day regatta.  After a year of being bound by a computer our kids finally have the opportunity to be on the water again to represent our amazing sailing program and club.  We are hosting the Virginia State Championship which is also the season opener for CBYRA.  With registration open for about a month we have been successfully amassing an army of volunteers to serve over 100 sailors along with their family and friends.  As far as the eye can see will be an armada of kids geared and ready to give it their all June 26-27th …
