JUNE 2010
COMMODORE’ S CORNER
As I look across Fisherman Bay, I see that the bay is
filling up with boats in anticipation of the long warm
days of summer. So far, on this Memorial Day week-
end, we seem to be getting the “long days” part right,
but what happened to the “warm” part? Makes you
look fondly at parts of last winter.
In hopes that summer-like weather will arrive soon
(before the 5th of July), I will remind you that our Flat
Point Clambake get together is scheduled for June 5 at
noon. Bring a potluck dish and some libation. It’s one
of those functions that allow you to do yard work in the
morning and have fun with the club in the afternoon.
This event is also where we start to put together the
“North Cruise” which is our extended cruising event of
the summer. If you’re thinking that this is the year you
might take the boat for a week or longer voyage, then
this is a fun group to cruise with. Come be part of the
planning process.
On the weekend of June 18-20, I’ll be hosting the Com-
modore’s Cruise. This year we’re going to Port
Browning on North Pender Island. It’s not too far away
and it will be lots of fun. Hope to see you there.
If you are having family and friends gather for the
Fourth of July, you might consider having them help
and participate in our parade entry. Contact Judy
Welker if you’re interested.
Have a great June! Dave

OPENING DAY 2010
Attendees at the unofficial Friday night pre-function looked hopeful—
the weather was warm and sunny. (Lisa Cram, Karen Bistrin, Judy
Welker, Jonelle Johnson, Doug Cram, and Audrey Bordvick)
But by Saturday
morning, the appro-
priate attire was rain
gear and parkas like
John and Nancy
Butte’s >>

Barbara

Evidence the Hawaiian theme, Judy Welker blew the conch shell horn
to call members from both Lopez Island Yacht Club and Friday Harbor
Sailing Club to the Islander’s Hawaiian buffet of Kahlua pork, chicken
skewers, salads, and pineapple- upside-down cake.

OPENING DAY WEATHER provided ample wind for
sailing and some stiff competition for racing. Spectators on the Islander
docks were treated to the racing antics of LIYC crews Dave Welker, Russ
Johnson and Duane Bordvick in Breathless Mahoney, a 20’ Pyramid 660
and Bill White, Rod Duncan, and Jim Lett in Williwaw, a 30’ Etchelles. As
you can see, both boats were
neck and neck for most of the
afternoon.
