Cruise Details - North Cove Yacht Club

NCYC Cruise 2014-‐ Cruise Captains Miller For any first time cruisers with North Cove, welcome! If you want any help at all, please do not hesitate to ask. Everyone was a first timer at some point and a club cruise is the best way to learn. The cruises are very fun for both sailboats and power boaters. We try to accommodate both those who like to anchor and those who do not. If you are thinking of participating in any part of the cruise, send an email with your cell phone to [email protected]. I will be sending out a list with everyone’s cell phone. Roll Call -‐ Every morning at 0830 there will be roll call. Turn on your radio to channel 71 for roll call and the Port Captain’s will provide the day’s activities. If you are leaving the cruise, please be sure to let the Cruise Captains know. Happy Hour – If we have Happy Hour, everyone is invited. Unless specified, you should bring an appetizer to share and your own beverage. Montauk Horse Back riding – Rob Hathaway has offered to organize horseback riding at Montauk. Please let me know by July 25 if you are interested. It will be $85 for an hour’s ride. Tigress Trophy – This trophy is awarded to the NCYC family achieving the best performance in club cruise related races. Lou Vinciquerra will be running the Tigress. There will be two possibly three legs -‐ One from West Neck to Robins, one from Robins to Sag and possibly one from Sag to Montauk (depending on whether the crew has not mutinied).

Depths in the channel after this point range from 5-‐7 feet at low tide, and the channel has some turns through what appears to be open water. If you miss a marker, you’ll be in the mud. ‘Nuf said.
