Wine & Cheese Party

Date: April 21, 2013

Time: 5:00pm

Location: QDNYC

Fee: $15.00 per boat

Details: This is a pot luck, BYOB event at QDNYC (Quonset Davisville Navy Yacht Club on 81 Wescott Rd in North Kingstown, just before Allen Harbor). Our guest speaker is Richard Fernie from the Wickford Yacth Club. Come hear about his incredible journey sailing around Cape Horn. He was aboard a chartered 54-foot cutter Pelagic that made its way around the Horn and along the Beagle Channel. Along with his friend John Rice and former Whitbread Racer Skip Novak, they were searching for the correct location where John Rice’s great-grandfather had scuttled his ship, the barque River Boyne, in 1875. Don’t miss this fascinating story. And, by the way, Richard sails a Catalina 380 named Swallow so he must be a great guy!

 

I look foward to seeing you this weeked!
