Power Fleet News<br />
By SEO NORMA PRATT<br />
Thank you all for your contribution and participation in<br />
our second annual CYC Marine Trade and Vendors<br />
event. Your collaborative involvement in the care and<br />
service of your boats is paramount for our boat owners who are<br />
the lifeblood of our esteemed <strong>California</strong> <strong>Yacht</strong> <strong>Club</strong>.<br />
Furthermore, your contribution of prizes, valued at $2070, for<br />
our silent auction brought in $700 for the Junior Sailing Fund<br />
in support of the Commodore’s theme this year “Our Future,<br />
Our Juniors.” We remain with $850 in gifts to use at other<br />
Junior events this year.<br />
In our Boat Forum, special thanks to Two Harbors Master<br />
Armando Eason for coming in for the day to give us an update<br />
on Two Harbors and Catalina Island. A tribute goes to USS<br />
Coast Guard Maurizio Vecchione for his presentation<br />
‘Suddenly in Command.’ Kevin Donahue, West Coast Rep for<br />
Lewmar, demonstrated in much detail how to service winches<br />
to the interest of so many sailors. Our day closed with Zac<br />
Sutherlund’s slide show presentation on ‘Sailing Around the<br />
World Alone,’ an arduous feat, what else can one say! Much<br />
more transpired this day. Personally meeting and spending time<br />
with so many wonderful members was the big treat! Thank you<br />
all for your collaboration.<br />

Fourth of <strong>July</strong> Dinghy Cruise<br />
Do join us for this annual celebrative event, we are meeting<br />
at the CYC guest dock at noon. Dress in your 4th of <strong>July</strong> attire,<br />
accessories will be handed out to augment your decorum. Call<br />
your friends who have dinghies to join in the fun on the water.<br />
We will cruise to the Killer Shrimp Restaurant where there is<br />
ample docking space for everyone. If you cannot make it by<br />
dinghy, bike over, or come by car. Everyone, please make your<br />
reservation at the front desk, we do not want the surplus of 20<br />
people without reservations that we had last year, much too<br />
disruptive for this special busy holiday. After lunch let’s stay<br />
together in our dinghies to cruise around the harbor in our<br />
patriotic mood with fanfare and music.<br />

What is better than a summer event on the lawn? Nothing<br />

John Luft and Cochairman Donna Leventhal have an evening<br />
planned that will bring the best out of everyone. Surprises<br />
await! Could it be that Jimmy Buffett will make an appearance?<br />
Attend to find out!<br />
