Thank you to Luiz Largura for sharing his experiences at last night's AYC General Membership Meeting. His anecdotes about converting from a power boater to a sailor, learning to sail a dinghy, adventures in ocean sailing, and buying a boat on a different continent were both informative and highly entertaining! Our next meeting is October 13th - hope to see you there!
