Shilshole Marina Dock E-19

Meet at the gate at 1:00pm

As this is an overnight trip, in addition to the typical gear you'd bring for a sail such as multiple layers (for wind, rain and temps), sun protection (glasses, hat, sunscreen), non-scuffing footwear, and a personal PFD if you own one, . . .

Crew should also bring a sleeping bag & pillow, and various other personal items to ensure your comfort for a multi-day sailing trip.  

We'll plan a menu and will share responsibilities for food purchase / prep. 

Also, we'll keep an eye on the weather, although in July there are much better odds for pleasant conditions.  We'll make a go / no go call several days before the trip.

Although we will be anchoring out, we will take a dinghy in case anyone wants to go to shore.

  • Heavy-duty gloves (preferably leather) for line handling (fingertips cut off is OK).
  • Warm clothing head to foot (Note: The ambient temperature on the water is usually lower than on land).
  • Foul-weather gear
  • Sunglasses
  • Sunscreen
  • Knife on lanyard
  • Whistle on a lanyard
  • Food and drink
