Meet at 12:00 at Meydenbauer Bay Yacht Club at 9927 Meydenbauer Way SE, Bellevue, at Dock 3.
We will join hundreds of boats north of I-90 to watch part of the Boeing Air Show, including the "Blue Angels" performing with their F-18 Hornets along with their support plane, "Fat Albert" a C-130 Hercules. We try to get right under their north/south flight path for the loudest effect. Please bring substantial finger food to share and adult beverages are OK. Don't forget a camera! After the show there will be some time for sailing. Contact me at 425-652-1269. Boat shoes please!
