WELL!!!!!  We all thought we were going on a nice and easy cruise this Labor Day Weekend

to St Augustine.  Not Going Too Happen!!!!  Everyone should be Battening Down The Hatches, Both At Home and at the Boats. Although we will not know exactly where this Hurricane will hit, we do know, because of its Size we will See a Substantial Part of this Storm. I am sure Most, if not All of us, are Working on getting Our Things In Order to make sure Our Property and Especially Our Families will be taken care of during One of Mother Natures Wake Up Calls.  ALL TAKE CARE DURING THIS TIME OF HIGH ANXIETY!!!!  WE'LL SEE YOU AT THE NEXT MEETING, GIVEN "FRANCES" DOES NOT PUT TOO BIG A HURT ON AMELIA ISLAND.

 

SAFE WEEK TOO ALL!!!!!!!

Gene

Greetings all you sailors,

 

The treasury is looking good, but the records are packed just in case we have to make a run for it. I'll give a financial report at the September meeting,
