Meet at 1:30 PM at Gate 3 at Meydenbauer Bay Yacht Club: 9927 Meydenbauer Way SE, Bellevue, WA.
This is a training sail for students on board my Islander 40, Tatoosh. We will be sailing on Lake Washington out of MBYC in Bellevue. The MBYC clubhouse is a large 3 story white building on Meydenbauer Way. Parking is allowed in the MBYC parking lot; please leave a note on your dash that you are a guest of Doug Penny. Tatoosh is located on dock 3, the most western dock at MBYC. Bring finger foods and containerized drinks to share. Your skipper is a pescetarian. No red wine. We have no plan to be stopping to eat, but will eat while underway and when time allows. Wear non-marking, soft soled shoes. Come prepared for the predicted weather. On the day of the sail, contact me via phone or text message only. 206-786-3684
