Notes from Zoom with Sail Newport and NYYC

[Duane Delfosse]

Hello all,

Attached are meeting minutes for a call we had today with New York Yacht Club and Sail Newport.   Please read the attachment for details.  Here is the executive summary:

We agreed to keep 505s in the Sail Newport Event planned for July 11-12 and consider something for 2027 or 2028.   Brad was very welcoming, and his reaction to our effort to store more boats at SN was to offer us a cordoned off area!  In case you are not aware, Brad has been very supportive and helped me put together the proposal for 2026 NAs in Newport that didn’t win the vote at the Kingston AGM.

Please plan to keep your boat at Sail Newport this summer!  We need to RECRUIT!  There are good boats available to buy, let's help Paul and the others to find a good, local owner.

Best,

Duane
