Early-Bird Sailors are Happy Winners!

Did you sign up and add your sailing plans as part of this week's Early-Bird promotion?

Gil, Chris and Gail did, and they each won a Silver Spinnaker Bottle Bag donated by SailorBags.

We've already heard back from Gil, who says he never wins prizes... "I am stoked." - I guess you'll have to stop saying 'never', Gil! 

Gil will be sailing his Catalina 30BS, Rosinante, out of Alamitos Bay Marina in Long Beach, California.

We've also heard from Gail who says, "...thank you!  Many years I’ve entered and never won a prize. Wow." 

Gail is organizing the Greater Detroit Sunfish Club Independence Day Regatta on June 23-24. The plan is to enjoy two days of Sunfish racing on Muskegon Lake. 

"There will be races for all sailors mixed, junior races, and ladies races.  Saturday night we have a potluck dinner.  We are going to stay at Muskegon State Park and sail on Muskegon Lake." 

Gail says the club is also inviting Sunfish sailors from Chicago, North Dakota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, and western Michigan to join them for the weekend-long celebration.
