2008 Florida Fling
of the Wood-Pussy Fleet & Friends

February 18-22, 2008, the CLYC mighty Wood-Pussy Fleet met in Florida for its Winter Social. There were 23 of us and we based our group mainly on Anna Maria Island and spent fun times from there down to North Port.

We walked on the beaches, kayaked in Sarasota Harbor's mangroves, sailed on a sloop off Bradenton on the Intracoastal Waterway, shopped at Saint Armands Circle, explored Charlotte Harbor by motorboat, ate together in various venues, even on the beach for breakfast, and at our two host homes (Weirs and Cotsworths), and finally several of us sailed 5 races on two E-scows in the Sarasota Harbor with the Sarasota Sailing Squadron who lent us the hulls for our use.

We had a wonderful time together. Come join us in 2009. Talk with one of our W-P Fleet Members about future Fleet events.
