ISLAND GOATS SAILING SOCIETY
Chicago Yacht Club Station
May 29, 2024
Hello Fellow Goats!,
The Holidays have come and gone. Beer Can racing has started and the first Casra race was last weekend. I want to remind everyone to save the date, July 12 for the Annual Pre Mac Cocktail Event. This will be the 115th running of the race and I’m sure there will be some wagering among members on who will get there first! As always, this party is a great time to renew old friendships and celebrate the upcoming 115th race.
On May 4th, 140 people attended the Annual Meeting held at Chicago Yacht Club, Belmont Station; 20 newly minted goats were welcomed into the heard. Their stories were varied and interesting as always.
This brings our Membership total to 413 Goats in good standing!
The Fastest Goats were Recognized:
Mackinac Cup Division: Burton Cardwell, Flight Risk, Ker 41.
Mackinac Trophy Division: Andrew Solyts, Liquid Lounge II, J-109.
Cruising Division: Tom Gorey, Runway, Elan 40.
The Smoked Goat was also Recognized:
Tim Hoffman, Salsa, J130, 2:12:26:03 elapsed, 2:22:09:05 corrected.
If you know of anyone that will be eligible for membership, please
let them know that they are welcome to come to the Goat Party on the Island on Tuesday, July 16th,
where there will be instructions on how to apply. If you are asked on how to apply,
please let them know not to apply until AFTER their qualifying race and direct them to the
Online Application
As Commodore, I am always looking for ways to server our membership
better. If you have ideas, please do not hesitate to call or email me!
See you on the water... or at the bar,
Paul Murray
