Welcome to the Hatteras LRC Club

 


Our 2012 Hatteras LRC Club rendezvous will be held at Coal Harbour Marina in downtown Vancouver, British Columbia. The dates are Thursday, September 13, 2012 to Sunday, September 16, 2012.

The format will be as we have successfully used at our rendezvous’ in the past: Thursday afternoon/evening cocktails onboard a host boat(s). Friday and Saturday morning presentations and club meetings with breakfast. Friday afternoon field trip. Friday evening on your own. Saturday afternoon “Open Boats”. Saturday evening group dinner (probably at Cardero’s next door to the Marina).

The marina can comfortably accommodate our boats including Fred Kirsch’s new 80’ Northern Marine “New World”. (It’s going to be a beauty worth visiting during our open boat period. Come and see what a highly experienced LRCer can do when he starts again from scratch.)

We will have a nearby hotel arranged for those who fly in for the rendezvous, as well as for our breakfasts and meetings.

Several members who cannot bring their own boats to the rendezvous are considering a charter cruise that would include the rendezvous. I have contacted two Vancouver area charter agencies and they can accommodate our needs. Chartering in Vancouver (as opposed to elsewhere in BC or Bellingham/Anacortes) may be a good idea. It is a fairly long transit to Vancouver from Anacortes or Bellingham or Sidney. The websites for the two charter agencies to whom I spoke are listed here: www.cooperboating.com and www.bluepacificcharters.com. There may be other agencies and I will continue my research. The two named above do have boats that would seem to be suitable for a cruise and for staying aboard during the rendezvous. By coordinating the charters among our chartering members, the pricing and dates may be more favorable. For example, Commodore Vince and Mary Birleson (Betty B) and David and Linda Stahl (Big Skooch) are thinking of chartering together.

Other Vancouver and Pacific Northwest area LRCers are helping with the arrangements. At our first organizing meeting two weeks ago, Bob Thomson (Interlude) and Randy and Sharon Mott (Akubi) were present. We also enjoyed input from several other local LRCers.

We plan to join the charter cruise with AristeiA and would welcome any other local LRCers to the cruise, as well.

We hope every Hatteras LRC in the Pacific Northwest and every 80’ Northern Marine named “New World” will be present, along with a strong contingent of charters.

Vancouver is a truly wonderful, world-class city and a charming boating destination. I am sure you will love it. And, the weather in September is usually beautiful. Please plan to join the 2012 Rendezvous.

Do not hesitate to call if you have any questions.
