On 26 February 2006, many members and guests of the Coral Ridge Sail and Power Squadron gathered at the Coral Ridge Yacht Club for the Annual Fleet Review. The day started beautiful and clear, but an incoming weather front forced some of our smaller boats to cancel their participation. The event begins with many guests showing up and coming aboard the various vessels.
Past Commanders Lena and Carin, come aboard Storm Weather.
Penny and Bob ask permission to come aboard.
Welcome aboard, Roger. Andy and Bob are already aboard.
Carin and Andy get reacquainted
Helena Friedman, Barbara Harrison await Ron Friedman in the cockpit.
Soon, it will be time for the Review. The boats head up the ICW to get into position. P/R/C Jim Ramey and his wife Kay arrive, then meet with Commander Will Dengel to discuss the parade schedule. Jim is the announcer.
The Bridge is ready
The Parade begins.... this year's participants are: KOKOMO
KONA WIND
DEBONAIR
BADGER
Representing District 8
and as always, the last boat..
This year, Eunice gets to salute... as Dean relaxes at the wheel...
Following the Review, all boats return to dock, then inside for a wonderful brunch.
Everyone has worked up a good appetite!
Welcome to our D-8 Visitors, Lee Popham and Family.
Lee chats with the Teateros
A short business meeting is
in order.
Commander Will Dengel and Administrative Officer Mike Turner take turns at the mike.
All this is really exhausting. Later, we find our Fleet Captain, P/C Dean Jackson, taking a short break..
And so ends another Coral Ridge
Annual Fleet Review!
