WEATHERMARK E-BLASTER

CHECK YOUR BOAT LIFT BEFORE YOU SPLASH!

Avoid the ‘Doh!’ moment. Lower your lift all the way down BEFORE you splash
and make sure you can get onto it. Remember, your slip is the ONLY place
you can perch. Boat owners responsible to make/pay for any required
adjustments. If you are sub-letting your lift to another sailor, please
make sure they can get their boat on it or have it taken out for the year.

Don Anthony is available to lower your boat lift if needed. Contact Don at
Bargeman at visi.com, or call Steve Bren at 612-701-3230. For a mere bottle of
Mount Gay rum, Steve will meet Don and help get it done for you.

will be served while you get a chance to tour the club and find out more

several owners and crew to talk about Bayfield racing, offshore events,
their programs and to answer questions.  If you have an interest in racing
on bigger boats and colder water in one of the best sailing places in the
US, the Apostles Islands, stop by!

NIGHTCRAWL ON MAY 5 – GET YOUR MARAKAS ON!!!

Join us for the first Night Crawl of the 2012 season. The festivities will
begin with a Salsa Bar and Sangria, followed by a Taco Bar (beef, pork or
veggie), rice and side dishes. In addition to lively Latin music, the
evening's entertainment includes a piñata pull contest. The winner will be
awarded the Hot Tamale trophy, a new traveling trophy awarded at the
discretion of the Night Crawl Committee. In addition to bragging rights,
recipients receive an exemption from any future "walk the plank" penalties.

Cost is $10 until Noon on May 4, $15 thereafter. Payment can me made at
http://www.wyc.org/Groups/NightCrawl.aspx.

If you plan to sail after dinner, please sign up at
http://bit.ly/NightCrawlSailing, where you can identify the number in your
party, if you have a boat or are looking for a ride and when you would like
to return to the dock.

NOTE: If you would like to use the club facilities, but prefer not to join
us for dinner or make your own dinner, you are welcome to do so. We
wouldn't dream of calling you a party pooper or talk about you behind your
back. ;-)
