| NEW MEMBER PHOTOS MOVED Following a discussion at our last general membership meeting, the link to the New Members Photo Page has been moved to Members Only. |
MS TAYLOR'S OFF FINDING EX- BAY VIEWERS AGAIN This just in from Sally Taylor: "just landed in Baltimore and who do I meet but Tom & Candy Adams, who were members of the BVBC a decade ago and say they still miss it! They are living in Eastport, Maryland, the southern half of Annapolis, doing beautiful boat repairs. For their old friends, contact phone is 410-295-7302. Photo is of the three of us." |
| BOAT EXCHANGE - seemysea.com Interesting Press Release for new boat-swapping company (similar to house exchange) based in France. Details here. |
| MARINE CONSIGNMENT STORE Yes, this is a blatant advertisement - but one which our members should appreciate - There is now a place in the Bay Area where you can sell your surplus boat gear and find new and used parts at fair prices. Check out Bay Area Marine Surplus in the Brisbane Village Shopping Center - and bring in your stuff! Our Race Committee has already loaded the shelves several anchors and the proceeds will go to the Wharf Rats fund. |

| BAY VIEW GOES GREEN You will now find composting and recycling bins around the club, which in addition to helping the planet has reduced the club's garbage bill by about $500/month. Paper and food to the composting bin; glass and plastic bottles to the recycling. All the rest - garbage. Take a moment to watch were you place your garbage and help keep your club green. |
