The Boothbay Harbor Yacht Club sponsored High School sailing team is gearing up for the 2014 spring season. Under the direction of Capt. Sally Lloyd, sailors from up and down the peninsula and neighboring islands will once again brave the cold waters of Boothbay Harbor to sail weekdays, practicing skills, and to compete weekends with other high school sailing teams from around the state of Maine.
Practice sessions will start early in April, the exact date at the moment is dependent on when the winter weather will allow docks and floats to be installed at the Yacht Club.
The youth sail the internationally sanctioned “420,” a two-person boat, and this year the excitement centers around the fact that BHYC, with the help of the Boothbay Harbor Yacht Club Junior Foundation, has purchased a fleet of 10 new craft, which will be delivered next month.
Interested sailors should contact Coach Lloyd at the Yacht Club at 207-633-5750.
