Our very own club members and marine electrical experts Scott McEniry and Andy Neuman have put together four presentations on marine electrical systems for our members this winter. Each presentation is a standalone, no need to attend the others if you don't need that information.
If you are thinking about electrical upgrades, whether you are doing it yourself or contracting it out, this information will help your project be successful.
This is the third presentation and will cover:
DC Systems
Load Calculations
Layput
Circuit protection
AC Systems
Shore Power

It takes more than speed to win races. The North U Tactics Seminar teaches the strategy and tactics you need to turn your speed into a podium finish. Starts, upwind, downwind, mark rounding: With top instructors and refined curriculum you'll learn techniques to improve your game all the way around the course.
Skippers and crew members will benefit equally from these seminars. If you are skipper consider inviting your crew along.
This is an all day seminar.
Sunday, March 19, 2023, BYC Marina Room.
The Race to Alaska (aka R2AK) is an annual 750-mile adventure race from Port Townsend, Washington to Ketchikan, Alaska. There are only two rules: no engine of any kind is allowed aboard, and racers can utilize no form of pre-planned support. First place gets $10k, second place gets a set of steak knives. Glory to the rest.
R2AK Race Marshal Jesse Wiegel from the Northwest Maritime Center will be presenting. He will walk us through the history of the race, how and why it was created, some points about the race area, a deep dive on several of the record-holding teams, and different ways people can get involved - from volunteering, to spectating on various (completely free!) platforms.
Jesse is also the Director of two other local events that he will talk about. SEVENTY48 is a 70-mile, 48-hour human-powered race from Tacoma to Port Townsend, pitting any form of non-motorized and non-sail powered vessel against one another. Salish 100 is a cruising event that travels the length of the Puget Sound each summer.
7:00pm, on April 27th. Click the link in the heading above to REGISTER. Free to members, $10 for non members.
