Our water production plant is currently offline for emergency repairs.
Water has been shut off to the Jackson Creek Docks, Dry Sail Lot, One-Design Lot, Junior Field, & Fishing Bay Ramp until further notice in order to conserve the limited water we have in the tank. I anticipate the water to be restored by July 27th.
We are also having power problems on the West Dock. The dock is not receiving adequate power from the transformer. I have contacted the utility company & will provide an update when I have more information.

Congratulations go to Walker Angus for winning the day and the Hicks Trophy, which is FBYC's perpetual trophy for this unique event. Walker skippered one of the club's new Melges 15's as well - great to see this new class taking off at the club (in more ways than one!).

Calling all women sailors, members and nonmembers alike!
There will be another two day Women's Sailing/Racing Clinic on July 30th and 31st. The Sailing Basics Class is for beginners or those who are looking to refresh their nautical skills.

You will choose your preferred class when you register!
Advanced registration is required! Please do so here.

Here is a quick summary of the conditions of the race courtesy of Jerry Latell:
