Folks,
Heads up for these 2 events. WYC runs a few of these events annually. They are very popular with the participating charitable organizations and their families. While WYC is a very good partner in good boating behavior, they give us a heads up on this because they can't avoid larger than normal wakes.
Please support WYC and their efforts to provide quality community activities for the very worthwhile organizations.
Small boats (rowing shells, canoe and kayaks, paddle boarders) are asked to makes adjustments to anticipate and accommodate these events.
On Wednesday evening, June 1'st, the Watertown Yacht Club will be hosting a downriver cruise for Best Buddies.
Boats will leave the docks between 5:30 and 6 pm and will be off the River by 8 pm.
There will be 6 to 8 boats, fully loaded with kids, cruising in convoy from above the North Beacon St. Bridge to below the B.U. Bridge. Given the heavy loads there will unavoidable be much larger wakes than normal, even at slow speed.
Again on Wednesday evening, June 8'th the Club will be hosting about 100 kids from The Perkins School.
Timing and course will be the same as on the 1'st, but many more boats will be involved.
Rowers are asked to please accommodate the disruption to their normal schedules.
Thank you all for your courtesy in helping make these very important events successful for the kids involved.
