Annual Cruise - 2006

 
 

 

March 31, 2006

Dear fellow Duckie Cruisers,

Here is the itinerary for the annual 2 week cruise. It
is important to call for reservations at Cuttyhunk –
Frog Pond Marine and  Stage Harbor Marine in Chatham.
Newport ( Ida Lewis YC) and Stonington (Dodson’s) want
a group deposit, so I need a fairly accurate head
count on those two locations. I will place the deposit
on my personal credit card, divide the sum by the
number of confirmed boats and ask you to reimburse me
at some point.

I have and will continue to submit frequent requests
for excellent sailing weather.
Lorry and I are very much looking forward to sailing
with you this summer.
The Memorial Day Cruise is only a few weeks away.

Howie and Lorry Simon
Rear Commodores Cruise DIYC
