The Port Elgin Yacht Club in Canada is planning to start their summer of sailing with a 'Round Island Rally on Summer Sailstice. It's icy and cold all winter in Port Elgin on the shores of of Lake Huron in Canada making summer sailing all that much more worth celebrating.
Members are invited to join the Port Elgin YC rally 'round the island and join Tom Sutton of the Saga 35 Silver when you RSVP here.
Port Elgin YC describes themselves this way, "The Port Elgin Yacht Club has approximately 50 members, predominately sailboat owners but our membership also includes power boaters and non-boaters alike. Club activities include an organized spring lift-in and fall lift-out, special sailing events, potluck socials and a club sailing / racing program. During the summer, many of our Club members travel together to explore the North Channel, go for a weekend anchorage in the Fishing Islands or sail to Kincardine for an overnight stay. Our activities are not limited to the boating season – we hold several social functions during the offseason as well. Our members are avid boaters and enjoy promoting sailing and cruising to people who do not have the opportunity to experience the fun of being on a boat. "
The invitation to join Summer Sailstice reads, "Rally 'round the Island with the PEYC in our first big event of the season. Come out for a shake-down cruise and meet your fellow sailors for the start of the 2022 season. " Hope to hear about your summer cruise with PEYC!
