We got a lot done, but its always a bittersweet time of year when the boats get put to bed for the season. Thanks to all who came and helped and those that cooked the food (Barry and Max). It was a great day to hang around the boatyard.

We have the money for the replacement AED in a separate account. Alan congratulated Doug Roberts for holding a great and economical racing season and all present agreed. We voted to maintain our membership in US Sailing and will pay the annual dues of $175. Purser Cannon will investigate our insurance options to see if we can get a rider to cover the pavilion.
