  • Recent voyages and lessons learned
  • Maintenance and equipment: new ideas, experience with gear and rigging
  • Issues and questions from new Southern Cross owners

The Annual meeting in Newport is the next best thing to sailing your boat in February. Renew old acquaintances, make new ones, swap yarns about boats and gear, find out who has gone cruising and where, and ask other owners to help solve problems.

Registration for the meeting will be $25 per person in advance--$30 per person at the door. The registration fee includes snacks on Saturday. Cost of the Saturday evening dinner will be $30 per person (which includes tax and gratuity).
