This talk will be an open forum to discuss boat projects.

Several SEAS sailors will discuss ongoing projects and we will discuss ideas for maintenance and other winter and spring tasks. This is a great opportunity to learn from ongoing projects or get support for upcoming maintenance.

The theme of the first Sailor Talk of the year is “Southeast Cruising (Past & Future)”. Several members will present their local trips to Southeast Alaska destinations such as Tenakee, Sitka, White Sulphur Hot Springs, the Outside Coast, Glacier Bay, Fords Terror, etc.

We'll also discuss plans for more cruising this season & beyond (Neka Hot Springs, Petersburg, Myers Chuck, etc.).
