JYC Club Cruise – Summer 26

Our JYC summer cruise this year is heading west into Long Island Sound

JYC members enjoy the advantages of an extended network of friendly sailors on the southern bay.

Organized activities include annual group cruises (1 or 2 weeks), long weekend or holiday regional gatherings, and informal rendezvous opportunities, and a winter dinner.

Cruises offer detailed itineraries with the chance to join for a few days, the whole cruise, or to come and go to facilitate personal side trips.

Happy Hours, dockside dinners, and other group activities such as museum visits or hikes are incorporated along the way.

The cruise activity we all look forward to is the Fools Rule Race, where each boat is given a bag of miscellaneous materials and instructed to build a toy boat.

The boat crews then gather on a beach to race their boats – it is tons of fun.

We also have had a scavenger hunt at one of our stops along with winery meet-ups.
