[J24 ListSrv] FW: Boat Parts for NCCS Sonars

[Andy Spence-Parsons]

Greetings - As you and your crew install your upgrades for the season, please consider donating your used items to North Coast Community Sailing in Bayfield.  They’re looking for; sheets, spin poles, blocks, and other line. 

 

NCCS is working hard to teach sailing skills to folks in the Bayfield/Washburn/Ashland area.   Those sailors subsequently become valuable crew members on WYC/AIS boats. 

 

I’ll prepare a package to ship on Monday 5/09.  If you have something to donate, please drop it off at “RedCoat” on the island at WYC.  

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Andy

Subject: Boat Parts for NCCS Sonars

 

Hi all-

 

North Coast Community Sailing recently acquired 2 Sonars from NY.  They need a bit of love, but we're VERY excited to have them.  We were able to get them here for a decent price, but they're missing a few parts. 

 

For those of you who don't know, North Coast Community Sailing is a very small organization that has been in the Bayfield/Washburn/Ashland area since the early 2000's.  Originally a travelling program with just optis and 420's, we've graduated to a small permanent facility in Washburn, with Optis, 420s, Lasers, and now 2 Sonars.  The Sonars significantly improve our ability to offer programming to adults, families, and early season classes when the water is too cold for small boats.

 

As you also know, buying used boats that have been retired from another sailing program means both boats need a bit of work, and plenty of parts.  Please remember that hardware and sails that would be retired from racing are still nicer than just about anything we've ever seen in our program.

 

We'll buy whatever we can't get via donations, but every little bit helps.   NCCS is a 501 c.3, so any donations (parts, money, boats, etc) are tax deductible.  Please feel free to share with anyone  We need the following, and we thank you in advance for your generosity:

 

Mainsail (2)

Jib (2)

Spin (2)

Spin Pole (2) (could be from a Sonar, J22, or J24, we can cut to fit)

Mast Chalks

Motor Brackets (2)

 

Sheets, any and all  (doesn't have to be from a Sonar, J22/24/S2/Capri stuff would be great too, as we can cut to fit).

Blocks, any and all (again, doesn't matter what they are off)

 

Hilary Jewel is our Operations Director at the Bayfield Rec Center, and Director of NCCS.  You can respond to her directly, or to me.
