Circle Whidbey Cruise
Cruise Coordinator: Bill Stinson M/V Skagit Song Moondance274@Comcast.net
Reservation policies and procedures are different at each port (please read carefully). More details will be available as planning progresses. This will be a special FBYC Cruise with multiple ports of call and activities available for many interests. This is the first half of an even greater combined cruise that includes the Victoria Buskers Festival. These two cruises should run together seamlessly for a spectacular July boating experience.

All stops on this cruise will be dock tie-ups. The total cruise distance is just over 100 nautical miles with at least 5 run days. The longest days are the first and last (the optional return to Skyline from Port Townsend) at about 24 NM or 3.5 hours at 7 knots. Cruisers always have the option to return home the longer way back via the inside. And, cruisers may also choose to join or depart the cruise at any port of call.
I will be the Cruise Coordinator for the Whidbey Island portion. I am assuming an 8 boat flotilla with 10 boats at Port Townsend due to reservation risk. We will tune this number as plans firm up.
As the scope of this cruise is a bit higher than normal, I will chair a skipper’s meeting at the club pot luck dinner one week before the cruise. There will be more detailed information including daily cruise direction print-outs distributed by email and as hand-outs before departure.
