Vento Solare will make the voyage from Fall River to the slip at the Newport Navy Marina. The plan is to depart BLM slip D32 at 1pm. We should be tied up at the Navy marina by 4pm. We’ll coordinate having a car at the Navy Marina so we can retrieve cars(s) at Borden Light Marina.
Crew is Bill, Billy, Brooke, Brenda, Luke and possibly Mary.
Navy Base access looks like it will be an issue this year, so let’s plan on the following:
- Brooke, Billy & Luke park at Newport Nautical 12:30
- Bill, Brenda & Mary meet at O’Club parking lot 12:30
- Mary drives everyone to BLM in her car, picking up Billy & Luke
- 1pm arrive BLM and go sailing! (Eric will meet us at BLM)
- Arrive Navy marina ~ 3:30pm
- Brenda drives everyone to Newport Nautical after we arrive
- Brooke or Billy drive Mary & Eric to BLM to retrieve cars.
There is beer in the cooler and the sails are onboard!
Be at Newport Nautical or O'Club Parking Lot - Tue April 24th @ 12:30PM EDT

Thank you for a great time. That hour penelty seems steep. If you look at yellow brick there were a few other boats in our class that were just inside that south east dot. Not sure how picky they were being.
Either way great work by everyone. Enjoy the party.
Bill went to the protest hearing about our sailing in the exclusion zone to fix the spinnaker. The results of the protest was the RC added 1 hour to our corrected time. This put us in 2nd place for the youth entries. We would have had 1st in youth if not for this. Hope to see you all at the awards ceremony!
Updated boat call time is 10am this morning. Those needing ride on base meet 0945 pass & ID parking lot.
Happy Birthday Sarah at Cedar Point!
