A lovely Saturday at Chicago Sailing


65 degrees and climbing at this point. Classes are continuing and our boats are busy leaving the dock for some perfect sailing. Today we have three Basic 101's taking place and a Refresher 121. With this warm weather and 10 – 15knots out of the west the sailing conditions are close to perfect.

Here we have two dedicated and hard- working Chicago Sailing staff members getting Jaffica ready for her first sail of the day.


Brian Morrow and his crew of sailors can be seen aboard Hebejebee enjoying a few apres sail cocktails.... they are still on the boat, hopefully we won't have to carry them off. We asked them how it went.. "Ton's of fun on the water!"- Andrew + Brian, "Party like a rockstar on a Hunter 326"- Andrew, "This Rocks..."- Leann + John.

We would like to thank Brian and his crew for getting out and enjoying the fine weather... not to mention the cocktails they shared with the Chicago Sailing crew... always appreciated.



Just as we were closing up this evening we had a special visit from some past customers of Chicago Sailing. Unfortunately we forgot to get their names... but there story is one to be told.
Last year they took a charter aboard one of our Hunters and upon their return they were engaged. A year later they are now happily married and wanted to stop by to get their photo taken as they forgot to take one the day of their charter.

Congratulations again.... two successful marriage proposals and counting for 2007. We like to think that there is something in the air down here.
