Storm Trysail Jr. Safety at Sea Seminar:
The Junior Storm Trysail Safety at Sea Seminar is scheduled for July 28th. Click here for more information. We strongly encorage our juniors to participate in this seminar every other year. Due to the fact we just lost a boat at sea and all the adults on board were recused, the safety equipment was in place and they were not injured speaks for itself. Having our juniors perpared if anything on the water happens is only proper preparation.
