Wooden Boat Show, Arrg
Maties!
On
Sunday, June 27th, the Master Mariners Benevolent
Association brings together the annual Wooden Boat Show. It
will be held once again at the beautiful Corinthian Yacht
Club located at the foot of Main Street in Tiburon. The
event has been drawing bigger and bigger crowds every year.
It is a wonderful day of fun for the entire family.
Well known for their annual Master
Mariners Regatta held over Memorial Day, this boat show
gives members of Master Mariners an opportunity to tell
their tallship tales and share the stories and history of
their own classic sailing yachts. It give attendees an
opportunity to talk to people who truely appreciate the
beauty and craftsmanship of the boats on display.
Approximately sixty vessels will be on display from small
dinghies to large schooners. There will also be model boat
building for children conducted by the Arques School.
The
modest gate fee includes a detailed program of attending
boats. Boat show proceeds go towards our Benevolent Fund,
which provides funding for either sail training scholarships
and/or skills training associated with restoring traditional
sailing craft. The CYC host a BBQ lunch and refreshments on
their outside deck (not included in admission fee) for the
hardy mates that attend.
