Model Yacht Club Report

Sailing has been suspended while the POA makes changes to the shoreline. It is uncertain if it will commence again next week. Six members of the club met the POA Community Manager and the planning engineer for the project on Thursday, to share our concerns. Several constructive changes were explored

and will be implemented. In addition we agreed to evaluate the redesign over a period of use and see if something further should be adopted. The rotting timber in the Gazebo were also seen & recognized, as well as the need for turning the benches 90 degrees to facilitate traffic. Thanks to John Thompson and Jack Noland for coming out and listening how we utilize the shoreline.

The pathway next to the gazebo will be a benefit.

Point Standings for Summer Series Qualified Skippers:

Races Needed to Qualify:

Nirvanas: K Thomson; 9, B. Miller; 4, R. Hawkins; 1, B. Blomgren; 1

Next ride could be BHI, Wrightsville Beach, Oak Island, Carolina/Kure Beach, or anywhere, but BHI is always a great choice. Please contact Debra Charpentier here  OR J.
