It's official! The 2016 Cape Dory Rally at City Island Yacht Club, City Island NY, will be held on July 16 & 17. Our small group had a great time last year, and we expect a larger group this year. Plenty of interesting yarns and useful information will be exchanged! Current plans include:
Friday, July 15th:

Sail-ins begin to arrive. Reasonably-priced guest moorings available - contact the dock on VHF Ch. 72, call (347) 899-8858 or email:

Saturday, July 16th:

One or two fun, low-stress Cape Dory-only races during the day.

For those who want to visit the Big Apple, Manhattan is accessible by public transportation from the island.

Cape Dory Dinner Saturday evening.
Sunday, July 17th:

Breakfast TBD - either at the club (we're checking availability), on your own on the island, or on your boat.

Inter-boat visiting.

Finally, Photos, fond goodbyes and sail-away.
If anyone has a good Cape Dory-oriented slideshow or videos that we all might enjoy at the Saturday dinner, let me know and we'll schedule you in!
It will help us plan if we can get some idea of how many boats and crew might attend, so please send an email to let us know if you're interested: Walker Lewis at rwlewisNOSPAM@optonline.net.
