    Dear Charleston's James Island Yacht Club, Come on.. It's time for some changes..

    some people do not do Charleston Regatta because of lack of water access but JIYC has allowed Lasers and other small one design to use their beach those weekends to launch from so no excuse for that weekend. So Laser sailing available for about 7 weeks straight along with every Thursday night...

    Dear Charleston's James Island Yacht Club, Come on.. It's time for some changes..

    thanks for agreeing. i think we have a bunch to offer and a decent seabreeze every afternoon.

Next year she may...

    vang, outhaul, cunni upgrades

    Does anyone besides me think the new upgrades are great but absurdly priced. Can anyone give me an idea if there are any deals out there for the equipment. I have a boat that is ready to race except for the $700 worth of equipment I need to add. I choose to sail my J24 and Sunfish which are...
