Dear GYC Members, 

Are you having your boat hauled out at GYC this year? If so, come to the meeting!

Mike Forcier is holding the haul out meeting on Saturday, September 28th at 9am in the clubhouse. This meeting is to organize where the boats will be stored over winter, so it is important that you attend. 

All new members with boats are especially requested to be in attendance, as is any member who wants to make changes to their current location. 

Please contact Mike Forcier for any further details or if you cannot be in attendance.

Extending Bow and Stern Lines

On launch day this spring an unfortunate bow line handler ended up in the cold water when a knot separated!

The best knot for tying two lines together, especially if they are of different thickness, is the sheet bend.

In the picture above the blue line is the thicker of the two.

If there is a big difference in thickness the double sheet bend should be used.
