Catalina 36 Santa Monica Bay—Fleet #1                                                         

March  2002

 John Celick   Newsletter Editor\Treasurer

 

From the Captain of the Fleet:

 

“As the newly appointed Fleet Captain, I look forward to a fun filled year and hope we can join up on some of the cruises and activities the fleet has to offer. Included in this newsletter is the schedule for the year, and it looks like there is plenty to enjoy.

 

“Thanks to Norm Perron, we had a great week end at King Harbor Yacht Club on the 9th and 10th with about eight boats showing up. Norm setup a computerized DJ music station at the club Saturday night and everybody (well almost everybody) danced. Norm made sure the weather was perfect. And somehow, he even eliminated the usual Redondo surge. What a guy!

 

“Our next meeting is March 19th, and it's a very special surprise. Bring your Pot Luck dinner and  enjoy the festivities. This is the meeting to come to this year!”

Gene Levinthal, Captain of the Fleet

 

 

Thanks to the Members That Have Paid Promptly - Dues are Due!

 

42 boats have sent in the dues and we expect at least 8 more members to re-join. Because of our “Honorary” members and those that joined late last year (so ’02  dues are waived), we expect that the fleet will have 56 boats in the roster: 46 Catalina 36’s, 7 Catalina 42’s, and one each Catalina 350, 400 and Passport 40.
