Mark you calendars and scrub the bird do-do and the green algae off the deck and set sail to exotic Sinclair Inlet for the….

West Central Sound Sail-In for Sissies!

Why Port Orchard? Easy to get to, Full Facilities, Power on the dock, plenty of free parking for Drive In’s, nearby Motels, Restaurants, Bakeries, Bars and Wild Night Life! Over the last several years there have been many people who wanted to attend our usual May Sail In…the SSSI… but were unable to do so do to time constraints as it is a bit of a distance to go over a short weekend especially if the tide was against you. We also had others not attending because their Admirals wanted to have proper facilities at their disposal and restaurants available. So…we have moved our May sail in to Port Orchard so all the sissies can attend!

All reservations must be made by signing up via the sign-up link above. Do not reserve your slip through the Port Orchard website.

Port Orchard marina now requires a non-refundable $5 deposit per reservation, I have reserved 10 slips. If you are planning on coming you must send me $5 to hold a slip for you. We can have more slips, no problem, but the sooner we do it the better as the marina fills up. If you want to arrive before Friday, make that clear on the sign up form. I will be arriving on Thursday…possibly even Wednesday depending on my cruising schedule.

If you are driving in and plan to attend the dinner, please register!

So mark your calendar and plan to come on over, down or up to Port Orchard!

Friday Night: Cocktails, Appetizer Pot Luck and Lies on the party float.

Saturday Night: 6:30 Dinner at Los Cabos Grill.
We have the entire Sports Bar area for ourselves…and yes, kids are welcome!! Besides Mexican food (of which theirs is great!) you can get burgers. There is a good beer selection and a full bar. And it is inexpensive and just across the street from the marina!!
