Blue Marsh Sailing Association

Hi Fellow Sailors,
 
It looks like Mother nature will be letting up on the rain on Wed.  Accuweather is predicting 9 MPH and sunny.  Get that boat out and get to the Lake.  I should be able to make it by 4 pm.  Hope to see you there.  Ganly’s after.  Tom 610-223-3593

Editor’s Note:  At this time it appears we will have at least three boats.

With Accuweather and other services calling for thunderstorms throughout the afternoon and early evening today and clear weather tomorrow we are going to go to the lake on Thursday.  The hour by hour on Thursday is predicting 8 MPH.  See you there!  Tom

This should be a good week for sailing on Blue Marsh weather-wise.  Armando Antonini called to say that since he can’t sail Wed he and Russ Witzke will be going to the lake on Monday (tomorrow).  They plan to go up around 1:00.  The temp is to be around 92 and winds about 10 MPH.  Why not join them if Monday works for you.  I can’t make tomorrow but will be trying for Wednesday.  Wednesday is to be around 87 and winds at 10 MPH- a good night as well.  Last week we had 4 boats on the lake!  See you on the water!  Tom

Accuweather is calling for mid 80 temps, sunny, and 8MPH wind on Wednesday.  This looks like a good opportunity to sail for a couple hours.  Hope to see you there.  Bring your boat- it makes for more fun for all.  I can use crew or anyone who wants to learn to sail.  Ganly’s after.  Tom 610-223-3593

Due to the hot weather and little or no wind, no one has come forward to say they planned to bring their boat to the lake this week for the usual mid week sail.   Stay tuned for the latest breaking news.

Due to having our July picnic at Blue Marsh Lake this Wednesday, our weekly sail will be on Thursday.   At least two boats from our club will be there.   Find us at the State Hill Boat Ramp around 3-4 PM.

For most of the past several Wednesdays since the beginning of June there has been at least one boat from our club out sailing on Blue Marsh Lake.  If you’d like to join us just come on out around 4 PM, and if you see a sailboat being rigged on the hard, talk to the owner to see if he has room for passengers.   If you’re a member of the club you’ll probably get an e-mail from Tom Stoner announcing who is planning to be there.   If you’re not a member of the club and you’d like to get involved just show up at the lake, post a reply by clicking on “No Comments” or “Comments”, or send an e-mail to me at webeditor@bluemarshsailing.org.

Tom Stoner and Joe Rutolo plan to meet at the lake about 3 PM for this week’s Wednesday sail.  There will be room for 2 or 3 without boats.

On most Wednesdays members of Blue Marsh Sailing Assoc.  take their boats to Blue Marsh Lake for a late afternoon – early evening sail.  Afterwards most of the group heads to Ganly’s Restaurant for dinner and some friendly conversation.  Check this page often, as this year’s sailing season gets started, to see when the fun begins.
