South Beach Cruise Out

---

UPDATE:

To all BBYC Members:

I heard from several members  the original schedule for our South Beach Cruise Out posed conflicts for many interested people. Concerns included not being able to have dinner at the South Beach Yacht Club which only serves dinner on Friday and Saturday nights; some not interested in attending the Giants game on Monday; some not able to stay until July 5th; some expressed a desire to attend the Farmer's Market at the Ferry Building on Saturday.  

I spoke with both South Beach Harbor and South Beach Yacht Club and they have been willing to make the following changes: 

     1) Dates have been changed to arriving on Saturday, July 1st and departing on Tuesday, July 4th. Check in time is Noon, check out at 11:00 am. If someone wishes to stay an extra day, that can be arranged with the Harbor staff once you arrive.

     2) We will have a group dinner on Saturday night at the South Beach Yacht Club. Reservations at 6:30 pm. If you plan to join the group for dinner I need your commitment by Sunday, June 25th. This includes anyone planning on driving to South Beach and joining the group for dinner. The number of advanced commitments will determine which menu we will be given to select and how large a group we can have.

     3) The SBYC does not serve dinner on Sunday. There are a number of restaurants within walking distance of the Harbor. I will be happy to coordinate another group dinner for Sunday night  if people are interested--please let me know when you confirm your spot for the Cruise Out.Drive-In cruisers are also welcome.

     4) We can still get tickets to the Giants' game on Monday night, July 3rd, for anyone interested---either in the bleachers ($35.00 ea.) or at the Club Level Patio Tables in Section 231 ($64.00 ea. which includes a $12.00 credit for food/beverage); please let me know by Friday, June 22nd, if you are interested in going to the game and the number/kind of tickets you would like. BBYC members who are driving over can join us for the game, but need to specify their ticket needs by next Friday.

     4) There will be fireworks at Oracle Park following the game on Monday night which will be visible from the marina as well as from inside the ball park.

Sorry for any confusion. Let me know if you have any questions. If I missed sending this to anyone, please pass it on.

Thanks,

Jeff
