Our host Club is celebrating their 100th Anniversary!

WE are celebrating the 30th Anniversary of the first 'production' Nonsuch 30 . . . it's our 30Cs - 30th !


This same Club was the home of the . . .
EAST GREENWICH / FALL RIVER 1995 WORLD RENDEZVOUS
. . . with 54 of our boats and crews participating !

That was the last and smallest of the g-r-e-a-t World Rendezvous held from '85 through '95 with many attracting over 100 boats ! There were lots of good sailors and lots of good sailing.

It's a new day in Nonsuch in many places! Opportunities and participation are building toward similar kinds of great, shared Nonsuch fun . . . afloat and ashore.

HAPPY NEW NONSUCH SEASON !

T - MINUS 8 WEEKS & COUNTING . . . IT IS ONLY ABOUT 8 WEEKS OR LESS TO LAUNCH TIME FOR MOST BOATS ACROSS THE NORTH EAST !

An increase in the cost per person from just over $34 to over $53 at the Hilton in Mystic CT plus economic concerns with not a few crews requesting just one off-season event, killed our annual North East Winter Social


Bob & Donna Todd LAZYBONES 30C 77 & Jim & Sharon Ward SPACECAT 30C 177 kindly volunteered to arrange their club and a caterer for our annual . . .
