Boothbay Harbor Yacht Club

Cadets from the Naval Academy will be arriving at the BHYC on Wednesday, joining our junior sailors during the day on Thursday.  Thursday evening the Cadets will join members for Thursday cocktails.  A huge thank you to all members who volunteered to house the Cadets while they’re in town. They’ll be in the Harbor through the weekend.

Six tables of bridge players filled the Casino for casual play on Thursday after joining together for a convivial lunch. Mah Jongg lessons have started as well, and ongoing Mah Jongg players are enjoying being together again.  We are a sailing club, but many special interest groups have sprung up including Yoga, knitting and writing offering a wide variety of activities for those not on the water.  And it is such fun to be at the Club seeing the youngsters and others on the waterfront that is teeming with activity. 

True to our core mission, racing is particularly active this summer with the most recent, the Around  Southport Race, last weekend. Rear Commodore Jon Dunsford reports on all sailing results weekly elsewhere in the Register.

This writer encourages everyone to make reservations for the dining room.  Chef Raymond and his kitchen staff are creating wonderful meals, the best in memory, served so capably by our charming wait staff under Hristo’s careful guidance. And don’t forget to stop by the Store for the latest in BHYC clothing and accessories.
