Weather Batters NPY Rendezvous

NPYO Rendezvous

West Coast owners of North Pacific Yachts enjoyed a successful rendezvous at Roche Harbor Marina September 29-October 2 despite being battered by storm-force winds and torrential rain. The weather reduced attendance somewhat, down from the 28 boats pre-registered, but several sessions were enthusiastically attended, especially one on engines hosted by Pat McCullough of Cummins Northwest.

Several women enrolled in NP Women on the Water training mentored by Capt. Gerry Travers. At least six women were at the helm of their boats on departure, so the training was clearly well-received and effective.
Next year’s NPY Rendezvous will be held September 21–24 at Telegraph Harbour Marina.

Yet I couldn’t walk across a room without being hailed by a Canadian who was as excited to see my cap as they were to see the racing. I met many who were on their 3rd, 4th and 5th visit.
