Sail Trim for Cruisers

Former Club member and paramount local sailmaker, Jerry Latell will help us master the art of sail trim the evening of April 4 at the club.  Not only is Jerry an engaging speaker and teacher he is also one of the most decorated local sailors and the voice of the Turkey Shoot Regatta.  Come Thursday evening at 6:30 to learn the mysteries of telltales, draft, battens and the like. Maybe even twist (no! not twist!)
