Chicago Area III

[12345]

People,

Looking for a ride from Chicago to lovely Waukegan IL on Sunday AM. Option 2: I would drive up Sunday AM and give my car to someone to drive it back to Chicago. PM me. Thanks.

How many Clowns will be stuffed in it?

Does anybody need extra help on the race to Waukegan this Saturday? I'm primarily a tactician on a Morf boat but I am confident as a foredeck, helm, pit, and jib trimmer. My regular boat isn't doing any races this weekend so I want to help out on a boat and get more experience and knowledge in my tool bag. Email me at [email protected] if you want me to help out!

Regards,

Dave

 

[Grinder]

you said 'tool bag'

I hope someone will take this young man up on his offer to crew.

Waukegan Race party is a blast.

Incidentally, Circus will be vying for a 3-peat of winning the rat-boat PHRF 5 class.

Gonna be some good racing.

I also have a friend in from California who will be racing in my stead on IMEDI. Please welcome him to the Chicago racing scene, won't 'cha?

see everyone up 'der eh?!

The America’s Cup Trophy is in Chicago (for the first time ever) on Thursday, June 20, 2013!

1. Look for it on a 4 minute segment on the WGN Midday News program from 11:00am – 12:00pm

1. Then 6:30 p.m. at:
   The Book Stall
   811 Elm Street
   Winnetka, IL 60093

Buy your book “The Billionaire and the Mechanic” (have it signed by the Author Julian Guthrie who is doing a signing after a reading), the DVD “The Wind Gods” and get a picture of you with the Cup!

Here's the WGN Video Clip of Julian and the Cup

You mean it isn't?

When was the last time there were 3 different overnight races taking place at the same time on Lake Michigan. I'd venture to say never. Good luck to everyone, be safe, yo.

What did they do the harbor last night!! Our dock is gone, and they put a star dock back in?? Someone is going to be wearing their ass as a hat tonight if I can't find the boat... WTF!! I just know those Christian rock band dudes from last night had something to do with this. Always pushing their religious beliefs on us, and then messing with our harbors...

.

I'd love to have my star moved back north!

 

[FLICK OFF!]

Polaris?

Looking for some local knowledge from the Chicago crowd:

My 14 year old son is fascinated by trains and the various swing and lift bridges that carry trains over rivers, etc. We're contemplating doing a Chicago "river tour" on our 18ft center console to get a closer look at bridges going over the rivers & channels in the Chicago area. Where should we consider going? Are there any navigational challenges we should be mindful of? Where would be a good place to launch our boat? Any and all local knowledge would be greatly appreciated!

Happy week before Sailor Christmas, everyone.
