The 2009
Small Boat Rendezvous!!
will be held from July 10 to 13
at Sucia Island State Park
Check out the
Montague Harbour Small Boat
Rendezvous too!
As you may already know, this website hasn't been updated for a while. The webmaster (me) didn't get to the 2008 rendezvous so I don't have a description of that until someone sends me an article on it. (hint, hint!)
But I plan to make it again this year, and look forward to seeing familiar faces plus maybe a few new ones. Meanwhile, please bear with me as I update the various pages and links. Most are still outdated, but I wanted to get the dates up so here we are.
Cheers,
Jamie
Sucia, the gem of the San Juans, is at the north end of the islands and is easily accessible from both the US and Canada. This year we will gather on the weekend of Saturday, July 10 and Sunday, July 13, with most of us travelling to and from the island on Friday and Monday. All the information you need about the weekend will appear on this website between now and July, but you can also follow the discussions about it through the Sucia group at Yahoo as people plan convoys and exchange ideas.
Two years ago we departed from tradition by planning ahead for a wine and cheese night. That has been so successful, it's now a part of the weekend, but overall the things continue to be pretty much unstructured. We'll sail when and where we like, and make our own fun.
We keep trying to hold a Sucia Challenge, a round-the-island race, although we seem to either lack either wind or the will -- maybe this will be the year!
If a people want to, we'll have a cruise after the weekend. We've done this for the last two or three years and if you've got the time, it's a blast. See the details on the Raid page.
Use the buttons at the left to look around the website. If you have questions, my name's Jamie Orr and I can be reached at small_boat_rendezvous@yahoo.com or phone (250) 478-5338, or you can go to the Yahoo group mentioned above.
