The son of one of our members, along with 3 high school-age sailors, is raising money to try to get to Auckland for the Harken Junior Match Racing Championships. They are the only junior team to be match racing on the west coast, and we think will be the first Canadian team to be invited south. They are showing "Sailing Around the World Alone" upstairs at Jericho on Mon 26th and invite you to join them. Here is the writeup:
Racing Around the World is the story of the 2008-2009 Vendée Globe race. 30 skippers, including Canadian Derek Hatfield, embark on a quest to be the fastest to sail 27,000 miles around the world, non-stop, without assistance and alone on 60 foot sailboats. This is one of the most extreme challenges a human being can face. The sailors are alone at sea for months and physical and emotional strength are essential. Growlers (icebergs), sea mammals, and massive waves are a constant danger. On any day the forces of nature can bring an end to the best sailor’s well made plans. They harness the wind, hope for safe passage over the sea and push hard to win. They are a testament to the audacity of the human spirit.
This event is a fundraiser for the team. Please come and show your support, and take in a great sailing movie at the same time. Suggested donation is $10. Please register so that we can tell the organizers how many to expect.
