Greetings!

We gathered at Louie’s for our Spring meeting on April 19th and decided what our sailing seasons for 2026 will look like:  we will race two Portsmouth Fleets, A and B (we need 2 boats to make a fleet), with a single start at 6:30 pm on the following Tuesdays, which were voted on by the fleet members present at the meeting:  

8 Week Spring Series:   May 5th to June 23rd

8 Week Summer Series:  June 30th to August 25th (no racing on July 7th for the holiday break)

We plan to meet at Main Street Pub after racing for results as we did last year – stay tuned for the weekly racing emails in regard to this and other important information.

Thank you to those who have already paid their memberships – see attached for a form. Memberships can be either mailed to Faith Akert, or paid at the restaurant after sailing; cash or check accepted.  

Also a big thanks to Dave and Gail Stiemsma for offering to be our RC for the first two weeks to kick off the season, and thanks to Micahel Kucharski for volunteering for the last two weeks.  See attached for the sign up form and let us know, either by email, phone or at the bar if you would like to fill in the gaps.

That’s it for now, so get busy cleaning up your boats and making sure all working parts are in order!  

until next email (just before the first Tuesday) –

Kathy  – ALCA Secretary
