Please join SouthEast Alaska Sailing (SEAS) for our first Sailor’s Talk of the 2014 off-season on January 30th from 6-8 pm @ the KTOO Building, in the 1st Floor Conference Room . Our featured presentation will be the 3-year journey of the S/V Songline (Fred Hiltner & Cinda Stanek). We’ll also present this summer’s SEAS Cup race schedule, review plans for the annual summer solstice race around Admiralty Island (the Admiralty Island Rally) and discuss several webinar offerings from North Sail University that we’re interested in.
The 2013 sailing season was one of the best in several years, what with the long dry spell, warm temps, and favorable winds. SEAS enjoyed one of our best sailing seasons since our founding in 2009 and had some genuine excitment during our last race to Taku Harbor. Race participation was up from the previous year with a few new families and boats making lifelong memories.
SouthEast Alaska Sailing (SEAS) is celebrating the end of the 2014 Season at the Silverbow Bakery & Wine Bar, Saturday September 13th from 6:00-9:00pm.
Join us in the back room to swap stories of the summer’s adventures and revel in another successful season of sailing races. Final standings for the SEAS Cup and Admiralty Island Rally will be announced, along with upcoming SEAS events to look forward to during the sailing off-season. We will have a slide show running with photos from this summer’s events, and information on how you can stay involved with the club.
