As we are hauling the boats out of the water to get them ready for the winter, we are looking back on the awesome season we had this year. Whether you are a seasoned member, just learning through classes, or are new to the club, you all played an important role in making this an outstanding season. We had a rough start with some bad weather, but overall it was one of the best seasons we've ever had.

We wanted to reach out to say thank you for everything. From member nights, parties, to regular fantastic sailing days, we are thrilled to have you on the water. For those of you who are not Frostbiting, have a great winter and we will see you in May for another terrific season of sailing!

BOSTON HARBOR ISLAND MOORINGS ARE NOW AVIALABLE THROUGH DOCKWA!

Take advantage of everything the Boston Harbor Islands have to offer! The public moorings at Peddock, Georges, Spectacle, and Gallops Island (no access to Gallops Island) are now avialable to make reservations. Make your reservation for a mooring at one of the island today through Dockwa! While any boat can tie up to the mooring you will need a dinghy to get ashore, there will not be a shuttle, a dock pick up and drop off is available at most islands.

Frostbite Wrap Up
Weather permitting, we film all of our races. Not only is it a fun thing to watch at the post-race gathering, but it is a great tool for seeing how your crew work was at a mark rounding, or how you started with the rest of the fleet. Here are just a few races from recent years, but you can find even more on our YouTube channel.
