ABOUT
This is always a fun day on the water. Unlike the other 400+ RVYC boats, Strum will actually sail past our 2026 Commodore, Don Vic &amp; his wife Randi on their Jeanuea45 Starship. For that reason, we appreciate the core-crew to help make the sailing happen, and to use this time to bring your partner along to enjoy a day on the water and experience sailing on Strum. This is not the New York Yacht Club, so think of this as a costume party on the water, with lots of champagne and minimal motoring. Dock Party(s) to follow. Uber/Lyft recommended. RSVP

FOOD &amp; DRINKS provided/available up top. 

GIFTS not necessary, but champagne/Prosecco/Aperol is always appreciated.
