Summer is in pretty much in full swing now, and there are lots and lots more boaters on the Charles meaning, everyone needs to use their best judgement, employ courtesy when possible, intervene when necessary, and report when all else fails, and you think that the behavior could be dangerous.  Keep your eyes peeled and alert other boaters of hazards too.  It takes a village....

Calendar

Wednesday, June 1, 2016
5;30PM to 8PM - Best Buddies Cruise from Watertown Yacht Club down to the BU Bridge and back.  6-8 boats chock full of kids having a good time.  It is nearly impossible for these boats to not throw a larger than normal wake.  Will this annoy you?  Change your plans accordingly.
Friday, June 3, 2016
5:30-8:30PM, Community Boatings, Friday Night Informal Racing, between Longfellow and Mass Ave bridges.  All kinds of sailing and racing abilities take part in these races.  Want to know more about how to spot a sailboat race?  Go to www.CharlesRiverAllianceofBoater s and check out the rowing page for info on how to steer clear of sailboats, who move in a very different way than rowing shells.
Sunday, June 5, 2016
9AM to Noon, The Latin Cup Rowing Regatta, on the Powerhouse Course (Weeks bridge to downstream of the Powder Magazine at Magazine Beach).  Cambridge Ringe and Latin v. Boston Latin.
9:30AM to 2:30PM, Community Boating's Tiller Club Formal Racing, between Longfellow and Mass Ave bridges.  Serious racing.  
Wednesday, June 8, 2016
5:30PM to 8:30PM.  Annual Perkins Cruise from Watertown Yacht Club down to the BU Bridge and back.  LOTS of boats, LOTS of larger than usual wake, which bounces off the previous wake and makes the river very difficult in place for small boats.  Will this annoy you?  Then adjust your plans.  Seriously.
