Opening Day - Day 3

What a fun day we had! The festivities began around 10:00am with the 25th Annual Windermere Cup crew races. I must add that the U of W Husky men's and women's squads took first place beating out talented teams from Cambridge, Oklahoma and Stanford.

After the crew races, the Seattle Yacht Club's Opening Day Boat Parade began with the traditional cannon firing to signal the opening of the Montlake Cut Bridge. The parade route was filled with all sizes of boats, classics, motor and sail, decorated and commercial, yacht clubs, and youth.  The following picture is of our Edmonds Yacht Club officers, the Husky marching band, and then the EYC decorated boat.

Just as the parade was ending Robyn, Gavin and Cohen arrived to spend the afternoon with us.

The day ended with a potluck barbecue with the eight boats from Edmonds Yacht Club. We had a wonderful time getting to know other club members better and watching the activity on the water. It was truly an outstanding day!
