*US SAILOR Of The Week
Darline Hobock*
Darline Hobock Darline Hobock has lived in Tulsa, OK, most of her life and
came upon a seemingly unusual sport for the area a number of years ago.
"When I went on my first sailboat ride, it was something that really struck
me, so I made a place in my life for sailing." She began sailing a Thistle,
graduated to a Santana 525 and now owns a J/24. And the rest is history.
Darline is past commodore of the Central States Sailing Association and
sails on Keystone Lake where she is a member of the Windycrest Sailing Club,
which has maintained a consistent membership of about 250 families since it
was formed in 1965. During her term as commodore, Darline helped form the
national multihull council as a way to support her friends who were
multihull sailors. She has also been involved in helping to organize the
national U.S. Multihull Championship for the Alter Cup. In 2003, US SAILING
recognized Darline's long-term commitment as a national and local volunteer
by presenting her with the C.R.E.W. award. More than 30 years ago, she began
volunteering for offshore's Portsmouth Numbers committee and is still
involved. She is known for making an extra effort while all the time being
tactful, honest and constructive. With her passion and commitment, Darline
is a sailor making a difference.
