Well, folks, this week’s announcement is the one you don’t want to see: This weekend is official Club Haul Out Weekend. Saturday and Sunday, club members will be on hand to help pull boats out, clean bottoms, and unstep masts. The 2 club powerwashers will be set up, and we are hoping to have breakfast […]
Hey, all, we have no Club events scheduled this weekend. Racing has concluded for the year, mainly because Summer Dry Slips ended yesterday, with all Summer Slipholder needing to remove boats on October 15 to make way for Winter Storage coming soon. Of course, if your Summer Slip is the same as your Winter Storage […]
Sorry this update is late in the week; my work-week got away from me. This is it, folks, the last Club sailing event of the year (we still have Haulout Weekend coming up.) Saturday will be our final race event, a Frostbite Series. It’s also listed as a Regatta makeup day. I expect that there […]
I can’t believe it’s October already! Our last 2 race days are nigh. This Saturday, we have our final Regatta day, with all boats invited, all starting together. (Final Frostbite/Regatta makeup day will follow next week.) Later in the evening, we have a Full Mood Raft-up scheduled. It’s the harvest moon, so get out and […]
Hey, all, this is the weekend of a very scaled back Steelman Triathlon. We also have Frostbite series racing scheduled for Saturday. Steelman this year will be scaled back to 250 participants in accordance with pandemic outdoor gathering size regulations. They will still be setting up in the Marina parking lot on Saturday for Sunday’s […]
Get ready everyone, it’s the return of the ULDB Regatta! Normally the Club hosts an “Up the Lake, Down and Back” Regatta and summer picnic. Of course, this year we had to cancel the picnic. Thanks, COVID. But we have rescheduled the Regatta for this Saturday. All members are invited to participate. There will be […]
Hi, everyone, hope you had a nice Labor Day weekend. Though it was the unofficial end of Summer, we still have plenty of activities continuing.

Hi, folks! Since it is a holiday weekend this weekend, we don’t have any club activities planned. As a cold front moves through on Friday, we should see wonderful weather for the weekend, as humidity falls, and temperatures as well. We’ll see highs in the upper 70’s to start, gradually increasing to lower 80’s on […]
I have additional information regarding Dianne Paxton. Her children have contacted us, and suggest that friends may wish to donate to the Multiple Myleoma Research Foundation (https://themmrf.org/tribute-in-memory-of/) or Grand View Hospital, where Dianne received so much good care (https://www.gvh.org/tributegifts/). They may try to organize a memorial, but in this time of pandemic, that is uncertain. […]
Hey, all, we’ve got Fleet Racing on the schedule for this Saturday. Classes with 4 boats get separate starts. The question is, do Lasers, Force 5, and Sunfish want to band together into the COVID Fleet for Portsmouth this weekend? The weather should be pretty nice this week, with high pressure keeping temperatures moderated, and […]
