Meetup Description:

City Island Yacht Club will be holding a series of seminars in the Spring and they have invited us to attend. This one is free! This is a great way to start your sailing season!

April 29-- Boat and Crew Preparation Panel Brett Clark Quantum Sails, John Esposito

Come early to socialize and break bread with your friends—our new Steward will be ready and willing to offer food and drink to your liking. As space is limited, and this Series generates a significant number of attendees, we highly recommend calling in advance and advising the Club of number attending and your diner intentions. The Club’s phone number is [masked].

Please put in your reply if you are arriving early for dinner and be sure to call the club and reserve a table!

Also, since space is limited, please don't respond YES until you are certain that you can make it.

    getting to the CIYC without a car is easy enough at rush hour during the week using public transport. getting out is can be extremely difficult. maybe the organizers can ask the people with room in their cars to offer a lift to a place where one can access public transportation.
