 Commodore's Ramblings How's your wind? Getting any good sailing in? I hope so!The countdown begins to the Birds Of A Feather Rum n' Root Beer Regatta, August 3rd. Between now and then, there's still two days for our newer members to practice. July 14th and 21st, Noon to 4pm we'll have our training boards and instructors available. We would also love to see our more seasoned (a-HEM!) on any of these days, when the wind promises. It helps for potential members to see what waits for them down the road. The sailing and fun on the water, as well as the camaraderie on the beach.

NIMBY 2019 by John Mascaro This was my 2nd NIMBY (first one was at St. Joe) and I have to
say; it was so much fun, I still have a smile on my face. I also
have a new perspective on why this event must be moved
around each year. Navarre beach did not disappoint; with its
white sandy beaches and beautiful waters.  The first night party was awesome with good fellowship and
great food as well as Perry’s awesome Martini’s. Saturday
brought the regatta which featured some wind as well as fairly
calm waters in the back bay which made the 9-mile course
doable for a novice like me in about an hour each way. I
achieved my lofty goal of “I’m going to finish” so I was very
pleased. After the regatta we of course had more libations
hanging around at the beach next to Juana’s and the after pool party.
Sunday the wind gods were unkind to us, so we called it a day and gave out awards as well as the always coveted “No Class” award. Some people went home and some of us crashed the campground for a little more relaxing and fun. What can I say, awesome friendships, fellowship, laughter, martini’s, wind, boats, sailboards, white sand, more martini’s, it was a stellar weekend. If you have not been to a NIMBY in a while or you are that gal or guy that is “just too busy” to get away from reality, just remember, life is short, go get some wind! See y ’all at the beach.
