The weather has turned cold and it is more difficult (not impossible) to sail.  However, you can still get your Multihull fix because the membership meetings will be held all through the winter!

The Chesapeake Multihull Association’s March meeting will be held at the Annapolis Library on March 20th at 2:00pm. It will feature a lecture by Eastern Shore sailors Rex and Celeste Conn.  Rex is the master/skipper of Alacrity, a 50’, Dick Newick designed Traveler Trimaran. They will discuss the dismasting of Alacrity at the 2004 Heineken Regatta in St. Maarten, the dramatic rig-less run back to the Chesapeake under kite (looks like a parachute, it’s sheeted only from the deck - mast not necessary), and preparations for the 2005 Faraday Mill Single-handed Transatlantic Race.

Admission is free and is open to the general public. Rex has participated in several significant offshore passages, logging over 70,000 offshore miles on various multihulls and monohulls. The Annapolis Library is located at 1410 West Street.
